I found some cheap as shit drives, and they are data centre drives that have been cleaned and all data removed. Anyway, am I in for a world of hurt getting some of these drives?

The only thing I'll be storing is tv/movies/books etc. So most of it can be redownloaded and not that big a deal if I lose them.

It'd save me like $700 if I got those drives. $90 for a 12TB drive versus 300$ from a shop.

What would you do? Has anyone bought some of these drives off amazon, and did they last a while?
