Don't buy them from Amazon third-party sellers!

I bought two sets of 4, one from Yobitech and one from Servertech Inc. Both times they were listed as 'NEW' discs. What did I receive in the mail? FREQUENTLY USED wheels! The drives have moved over 200TB of data and have been in use for over 3 years. Every disc from both companies had media errors, Yobitech had unrecoverable errors. I wasted over a month talking to two companies and getting an RMA. So stay away from sellers on the Amazon marketplace who are selling them as NEW. I guarantee you'll get a heavily used hard drive. Negative feedback for both companies listing fraudulent items. PS If you can get a NEW drive these drives will work as we use them in our data center but I can't trust Amazon to verify their resellers.

Pros
  • Feel good
Cons
  • Legacy
