WTB PLEASE: Largish 3.5" HDDs to Backup film Collection


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Hithere illustrious GZ's,


We are after some 3.5' HDDs to backup home media library


Job is not mission critical etc, we just back backup a few TB each time it's added t the media server everyone & then and power down and tuck away


Previously bee using the 8TB/$229 Segates without any issue from Amazon but would now maybe prefer a GZ bulk deal from the forum


If someone have some useful reliable 3.5" HDD's to sell just PM me, bigger volume discs are easier, we have 100TB of film all up


We've good cheap access to a courier agent, so wrapping/labelling is all you've gotta do, leave at front toor etct etc


TIA - Haran

Probably not of any help, but I have a couple of dozen 500gb drives available, mostly brand new.

I could be interested in a few for similar purpose as the OP :)

 

What would you be after for them ?

$20 each, with free shipping for 5+ was what I had in mind.  :)
