Details: | Refurbished 2TB Hard Drive for $30 Refurbished (not new) HGST/Hitachi Ultrastar 2TB 7200rpm 3.5" Hard Drive for $30. It is a 7200rpm drive which performs better than a regular 2TB drive, but can be more susceptible to failure due to heat. Only recommended in a fileserver with RAID. Old hardware RAID controllers are very cheap on Ebay (such as the 9650SE cards which support up to 2TB drives). We built one fileserver with 5 refurbished 2TB drives from Newegg, and 2 of them failed within 2 months. Both were replaced by their 90-day warranty. This can be a hassle, but you can get a lot of storage for cheap from Newegg's refurbished drives. As an alternative, Newegg is also selling a Seagate 4TB 3.5" Hard Drive for $105 with code EMCELGN68 today. Normally $115. Or, a Toshiba 5TB 7200rpm Hard Drive for $145 with code 07294DAY92 or ESCELGN23 (normally $153). |
