        That’s not $10-$11 as suggested above, nor is it $15. And that’s not even a new drive.

          Where are you getting $430? Im seeing $306, which puts the per TB at $15.34.

          A lot closer to the $10 the poster above was talking about than the $30-35 the person mocking him was saying drives cost.

          Its also a refurbed drive from a well trusted, quality vendor that does testing on each drive and offers a 3 year warrenty.
