I’ve heard someone say they have black Friday deals sometimes it’s not black Friday but I would pick up some for a good sale. I already have plenty but could always need more.
server parts deals and go hard drive prices on certified refurbs seen to be up from last year. hoping for some deals for black friday
I’m really sad about this. I was planning on buying a drive from them, but now their prices don’t make much sense around black Friday.
I’m hoping for Best Buy to put up 18tb external drives up again for $200.
Black Friday has mostly been a scam for a long time now. Companies have low stock on the good items to drawn you in and sell you the crappier stuff that they’ve got a bigger margin on. I’ve found as good or better deals throughout the year compared to BF/Cyber Monday.
As someone else mentioned serverpartsdeals is good to go and has probably the best pricing along with really great packaging for drives.
If you have a good deal already, just have them. If there any good deals on Black Friday, then get them as well. You cannot ever have too much drives ;)
Get the “Keepa” browser add-on / extension or cell app for Amazon item price tracking. It’ll show price history right there on the item page, & you can also setup your own price tracking & notifications. A decent alternative is “The Camelizer” aka “CamelCamelCamel,” although I prefer Keepa. The best $/TB I’ve seen for a new HDD is the 22TB WD Red Pro. I bought 2 not that long ago when they briefly went on sale. Keepa will show the price on the graph & I think in statistics, or something similarly named.
Dunno but I will be keeping my eyes out. A couple of WD 20TBs to shuck would be lovely, I just don’t want to pay normal retail prices! Not this close to Christmas.
Just ordered 2 12TB Red Plus drives from WD site for 379.99.
Been eyeballing this one
