Is it me, or does it not seem like there are many decent black Friday deals on any kind of internal storage whether it be a spinning hard drive or a solid-state device? My last drive purchase was a 16 TB Toshiba enterprise and they paid $225. Black Friday deals. Don’t even come close to this. Except, perhaps, if people are willing to shuck.
20tb hd $205… Refurbished. No good deals. Lol.
Black friday in general is pretty lackluster lately, but keep in mind that you’re looking for deals on items that don’t really experience the seasonal variability that other consumer products do. People (generally, this sub aside lol) aren’t putting HDDs under the christmas tree.
black friday deals havent been that great in 20 years. it used to be a major deal.

This is bullshit.
Black Friday was insane for a handful of years following the Great Recession of 2008. Lasted till the very early 2010s. Retailers were desperate, desperate, to get you in the door or buying things on the website.
Yeah back then it was legit 80% off old inventory as they dumped everything to make room. Online having sales 1+ weeks early and seemingly infinite storage for merchandise really changed this.
Like, wtf is going to wait in line for hours to get -15% on kohls brand tshirts?
Did you not want the 22TB WD Red Pro for $335?
That’s $100 more than what I paid for it not that long ago. Get a price tracking app. I prefer Keepa, but CamelCamelCamel (aka the camelizer) should work well also.
HD Sentinel is 55% off
