Got recommended this store for cheap HDDs recently. They sell enterprise HDDs at near wholesale rates so they’re almost half the price per TB. Just picked up a couple of 16TB drives for like $800.
I’m waiting for a couple of people to report on their trustworthiness as some of their prices are a bit lower than I’d expect to see.
Just had a search around and it looks like Neology is an active user on OZBargains and was talking about group buys and helping with cheap HDD sourcing for a long time.
Yeah, the person who recommended me this site did mention that Neology used to be active on Ozbargain and ebay before setting up their site. Iirc I was told they source their HDDs in bulk from Hong Kong which goes some way to explaining the price difference. That’s also why the warranty is with Neology and not Seagate/WD.
So then hes a gray market importer and the warranty is only as good as you can trust him to stay in business.
