So, apparently, I didn’t realize that I’m a hoarder too. I built a starter setup with a 36 TB hard drive and filled it up in just a month. Now, I’m considering buying another 18 TB hard drive, but the price has increased by 100 USD since I last bought one. ServerPartDeals doesn’t have them anymore, and I found a good retailer on eBay. My question is, is it a good idea to buy hard drives as the prices keep going up?

I think I already know the answer, but I need you all to confirm it.

I’ve bought certified refurbished 18 TB hard drives from Seagate Exos. I use them for media, mostly Plex libraries.
