I ran out of space from my 3x12tb cluster. I need to buy something that's 12tb or bigger and I can't seem to find anything that is from a reputable company. I tried ebay, but really want to avoid if I can, sometimes they carry no warranty and priced similar to stores that have 2-3 years warranty.

I was considering to take my parity drive and turn it into my data drive just to have that extra space. It's such a bad idea though.

Is 12tb refurbished drive running out? Should I wait a bit longer to look for something a bit bigger to allow them to be retired from the data centers?

The American has plenty of places who sell refurbished drives.

What are you doing doing?

I live in Ireland, most if not all charge a 30€ premium for delivery.

Please share any decent store that offers decent warranty and price.
