    Delivery is over $26US for me, so around $373 AU delivered

    • Regie69 on 22/01/2015 - 16:09

      Free to 3023 when combining both

      • busterau on 22/01/2015 - 16:10

        Have you gone through to final checkout at that price?

          @Regie69:

          Yes amazon says free shipping on items, it is only when you get to the checkout you can see the true shipping cost for international customers.

          Just out of reference this works out to be around $50 cheaper than sourcing direct from an Australian supplier (eg. Shopping Express), this is factoring their delivery as well.

        • Diji1 on 22/01/2015 - 16:20

          @kearnsy: That cost is sometimes reduced a great deal from the shipping price they claim for er … "non-free" shipping costs.

          For example I bought some eyedrops and some scissors. The shipping for the eyedrops alone was $35 or so but combined with the scissors the shipping was around $6 or so for both items.

          They basically make it so you pay so much shipping for one item that it makes more sense to order another item and pay the reduced shipping cost (which seems in my estimation to be very good shipping rates).

          I'm assuming this won't happen after some limit is reached in terms of the item weight and volume (including packing) as these are both light, small and non-delicate (they don't require additional packaging to protect the object during shipping).

        • busterau on 22/01/2015 - 16:24

          @Diji1:

          I haven't purchased from Amazon where the shipping was reduced the more items that were added to the cart. This is in my experience over the dozen or more orders I have placed with multiple items with Amazon over the years.

          In this example, the shipping on the NAS was $16 and adding two RED drives added a further $10.

        • Diji1 on 22/01/2015 - 16:28

          @kearnsy: It wasn't more items it was reaching the free shipping threshold price that lowered the shipping rates.

          The shipping isn't free (like it would be for USA residents) however the shipping after reaching the free shipping threshold price was reduced to six dollars or thereabouts.

          I seriously doubt that Amazon "needs" to spend $35 to get a 10gram pack of eyedrops to AU ;) so it's seems to be a device to get you to spend more and then when you do you pay "reasonable" shipping for some items presumably.

    FYI - 3Tb Reds have a 10% failure rate

      More details required. They actually have a 100% failure rate if you wait long enough …

        There was an article on it today, can't remember where. Anyway the senses was like 16k+ or 30k+ hard drives.

        The 4TB have the best success rate. And I think HGST came out on top.

        "The Western Digital Red 3TB drives annual failure rate of 7.6% is a bit high but acceptable."

        I dispute the acceptability of this failure rate, when the purpose of the drive is for data retention and back up/NAS.

          Eek. Those failure rates are terrible. Nearly one in 8 drives fails. Given you're looking at two drives here, there's nearly 25‰ chance one of them will fail :(

          @DJ: Christ almighty would you people shut up about hard drive failure rates already?

          You accept greater probabilities of death and serious injury getting behind the wheel of a car every single day, riding your bike, swimming at the beach or doing any number of ordinary, mundane activities on a daily basis.

          But God forbid there is a statistical probability greater than 10% that your sh*tty, hundred dollar investment might not make it to the 3 year mark; yes let's all focus our combined outrage and self-entitlement at this gross miscarriage of justice that is flaky hard drives taking all of our p0rn and worthless photos with them to the Cyber Underworld.

          The humanity…

          I work in IT and I swear I've never come across people more concerned with data integrity than the soccer mums and dudebros of OzBargain who like to getting into sh*tstorm debates about Seagate vs WD and that gospel literature of theirs that is the BackBlaze Report.

          @Amar89:
          Wrong side of the bed today? :)

          This is a pretty high failure rate, I'm trying to warn fellow Ozbargainers of the /relatively/ high chance of one of these dying on them in the medium to long term.

          I get negged yet the comments above mine get plussed. I really don't understand ozb sometimes.

          Interesting that of those items you mentioned, none of them have a 7% chance of ending badly.

          Why don't you take a ticket and get in line behind the thousand other self-appointed HDD subject matter experts who've chimed in on every single hard drive-related deal with their 5-minute Google Research Whitepapers as well?

          I get negged yet the comments above mine get plussed. I really don't understand ozb sometimes.

          What I just said. The horse hasn't just been beaten here, it's been cremated and nuked from orbit. Stop already.

      Comments about hard drive reliability on hard drive deals have a 100% failure rate.

          These results are based on one large business's results, not really enough analysis in the article to backup their statements, what's to say the WD drives were not ordered in a batch and mishandled?

    For people who are worried about the 3TB WD drives, please use Seagate ;)

    FYI: The MTBF is the same between 3TB and 4TB drives. http://www.wdc.com/wdproducts/library/SpecSheet/ENG/2879-771…
