It's A Digital Disease!

Hi,

I am from South Asia and I am planning on visiting my sister in the US for 2 weeks. I was thinking of ordering 2 x 16TB refurbished HDD from server part deals and carrying them back with me.

I can directly order it to my country from their website but I will have to pay double because the custom will cost me just as much as the drives itself.

I am worried that the drive might fail early since they are refurbished and I won't be able to send the drives for replacement even if they are under warranty.

Would this be a good idea? Any recommendation or suggestions would be appreciated.
