I'm new to the idea of purchasing refurb. My last purchase was 4 x 20TB WD Red Pro drives new for $350 each. I can't go back to smaller sizes and it does hurt to spend that much on a hard drive; so I'm now taking the plunge into the refurbs with 5 year warranties.
My threshold for pulling the trigger on a brand new drive was under $17/TB. I made an exception for the WD's because the 8 bay NAS they are in was a Christmas present and I needed to populate it with something :)
Anyway, from reading another post on refurb drive prices it seems like prices have gone up significantly. 4 of the 8 bays in my NAS are populated with the WD drives and I'm just over 50% full so I'm good with sitting on the bench for awhile.
What price per TB should I consider for my buy box? $10/TB? less?
