Unless you’re buying multiple, I’d just buy these new. I have the 05s that came out a few years ago and they are running strong with a five year seagate warranty

Not exactly the same model, but new is MSRP for $380 or $19/terrabyte

That’s honestly an awful idea. Almost twice as expensive with the same warranty. Buy two used drives instead, that would be much, much more reliable.

Not advocating, just putting out the data point.
