Speaking from experience, don’t get Seagate. Western Digital is better. I’ve been collecting movies for 15~ish years. My array is 65TB with 4000 movies. All WD EasyStore and MyBook. Seagates just aren’t reliable enough over long timespans.
I hope you’re seeding
Ive found seagates to be more unreliable than their competitors as well.
Why no such deals in EU :(
thank your government for that
Taxes
What is the actual hard drive model inside?
Most likely whatever drive that didn’t pass testing to be sold as full retail.
They can just keep changing their minds about what they put inside as long as it meets the level of performance advertised.
IME these are always either Exos or Ironwolf Pros
This is player price.
Player price? What does that mean?
Do they make 14tb smr’s?
Solid price per TB
That’s one of the ones I have. It’s lasted since 2020 in top condition so far, the only issue is that it vibrates my table a little whenever I access any new file.
almost jump to costco website and realize it is costco.com and not costco.ca and planning to return the one i purchased at bestbuy for $240 cdn
Hopefully that hard drive won’t crash, otherwise your favorite movie will be „Lost“
There have been a lot of sales on the Seagate drives lately. Maybe people are getting tired of the noise. When my sons tower is running, I can hear it from outside his door. I’ll stick with WD.
When is this deal supposed to start?
love these have 3 already and they are magnificent same price as op. actually 129 each before taxes
What drive came in yours?
I have the Costco flier advertising the 14 tb seagate drive and it says the deals are for members 11/21/2023-12/17/2023 on the front of the flier.
How reliable are the seagate 14 tb externals?
I usually get western digital externals never bought a Seagate external.
Are these 14 externals shuckable? Probably won’t shuck them since I can’t buy 6 but I hear they making it harder to shuck. My last buys for recertified enterprise drives.
I’ve had two Seagates fail within a couple years, they’re notorious
This is the drive I previously posted about earlier
I saw an ad on Facebook for a 4tb nas for 50 bucks. It’s a Lacie with dual 1gb Ethernet and yeah it’s a 4tb alright. Idiot selected maximum security storage and had it mirror 4tb 8 times. Also has 4 USB ports which I added another 2 4tb to. That I already had. This was 6 months ago and ive filled up all those 36tb and another 40tb. Then I have a 4tb+2tb+ the 2 SD card slots have 1tb+1tb so 8tb in my little handheld and I don’t want to admit what I have in my desktop. But I got a good deal on USB C 1tb SSDs and bought more then all my fingers and toes worth. Everything is 95% or more full.
Should I get help?
