Western Digital has a super-hot Cyber Monday deal on the WD 16TB Red Pro 7200 rpm SATA III 3.5″ Internal NAS HDD (Retail) — on their site, it’s now discounted to an incredible $279.99, a 46% discount from the regular price of $520. Free shipping.
Note, this may sell out, like the 18TB for $319.99 already has.
This is an incredible price for this drive, it’s even less than the 14TB drive currently on-sale at Amazon, this is also a 7200 rpm SATA III drive with a 512MB cache.
ordered 1x 16TB @ 11a PST .. got email right after that item is backordered.
That’s too bad, but it’s probably a price worth backordering for.
Now sold out. Price back to $519.99.
I ordered one right away as well, and a 2 tb SSD…. got them both for $390, as I’d had a 15% off coupon which WD sent me after I’d sent two dead drives in for recycling! Best deal ever. Just got a shipping notice yesterday. I usually buy external drives, and shuck them if needed. This drive is better, and has a 5 yr warranty, I think.
As always, thanks for the alerts, Gordon! Loving my R5! (I got three, sold two for abt $550 profit!)
