Bit of a deal for those of us who use freight forwarder to get stuff from the US. - Deal is on the US Newegg site

 

Newegg has the Seagate Elements 10TB drive for $199 - $15 coupon (Have to enter your email to claim) = $185USD / $260ish NZ. I came out at $250 on my ANZ CC but I paid $175 due to having a $10 voucher from a previous Newegg price mistake.

 

Drive is shuckable (case must be destroyed) and no 3.3v issues like its WD counterpart. According to reddit it is an IronWolf inside. Not the best deal I've ever since but for a 10TB since the invention of CHIA I haven't seen cheaper.

I'll be consolidating it with some other items to maximise my freight value but I would expect it to come out sub $300 total cost to me - which I think is decent considering local prices are around $450 for a 10TB
