if you value your data, use raid and backup(this comment has raid, and I've stored an offsite backup of it on two different types of media :) )
And TEST YOUR BACKUPS.
mirroring via a cloud service across a few different devices is also reasonable for the average person.

New is not always better. Remember IBM Deathstar?
I member!
I had a Deathstar for 10years, never a problem,, I initially worried about it but it was fine,There was a firmware update that “fixed” them. I also never suffered the click of death with Zip drives.
Sometimes fears are overhyped.
But I would never buy a “refurb” enterprise drive!!!
Thank you for the link.
I bought one to connect to Windows PC.
It seems to be good value per TB. I hope it is shuckable.Is it possible to reformat for windows use?
I don't believe reformating would be necessary as Windows 11 supports exFAT.
Should be.
Never seen a drive you can't format.
Thanks for everyone's comments
I have received the drive.
Super easy to shuck. It is a 12 TB Seagate Enterprise ST12000NM0127.
All those Chia mined drives 😱
At least on enterprise drives, thats probably the lightest load you could ask for.
Chia gives a few seconds of break, regularly, something like a busy SQL database, or even hosting a semi popular website can thrash 24/7.

Smoking hot price. Too good to be true?
I am not sure. Bought 3 yesterday so we'll see.
Certainly not a reassuring read:
https://www.servethehome.com/backblaze-2021-hard-drive-relia…But tempted at that price. Very tempted.
The company is legit; I can confirm that, no info on that specific drive.
Have you bought from them before?
@eraser215: Lots of OzBargainers have, see other threads.
@eraser215: Many times. Though I only buy their WD stock.
Care Instructions: Do not drop :)
Isn't that a self encrypting drive? Will that even work?
Are you able to report back? Are they any good? Thanks
Refurb? Would have to be $40 (inc delivery) and I might try a couple out.
