Meanwhile the same 18TB is $499.99 CAD in Canada...
nope it is 300$ while black friday
Don't need this... ok I'll buy just 1
Setting up my first NAS (synology). This or recertified Exo for the same price and warranty?
Well, I got an Enterprise one (WUH721818ALE6L4) for US$ 245 shipped.
Do these have the 3.3v pin issue?
I bought two. One to give me room for another 900 movies on Plex and another to back them up. I should be good for awhile.
Cleared out my store's three units.
Pairing this with 8TB SATA SSD for disaster proof backups. After twenty years, getting all my data in one place...
... Well, except the 20TB overflow. That backs up to my $279 20TB's. Which hook into BackBlaze. They had better appreciate the loyalty. The 28TB backups sure cost them a lot.
I'm just glad I don't have more. Then I'd have to set up a NAS and, ugh, I'm just working too hard to enjoy doing that these days.
Only hiccup so far is either my 8TB Samsung 870 QVO died or the enclosure, a whopping 30 minutes in. This is why I backup meticulously in (at least) three separate locales, plus encrypted cloud.
Yes, but can you shuck them and use them? Or have they added the drive encryption to the interface?
And what specific model drives are they? (The HDD, not the easyStore)
--- DS
how about stock picks that are about to grow well?
Some of the 10TB Easystores in my server are getting close to 5 years, so this is a convenient time to upgrade.
i bought one, will probably go buy another before the holiday season ends as long as it's still $200.
These are cmr right?
Idk I just get my drives with out enclosures and drives
Mine came in late last week. I hooked it up yesterday, and it is making an incessant clacking noise, so I'm returning it.
Data Hoarder
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
