Been looking at second hand SAS drives for my UnRaid server. Pretty cheap refurbished ones on Ebay but wondered if anyone had a low hours drive or drives they want to sell.

Noted. Hoping to do better locally, or else get new on Aliexpress...

I had a decent experience with Water Panther - good price, arrived promptly etc.
personally I would be a little wary about aliexpress for this sort of thing, but that’s just me.

I got 6 x 12TB drives from water panther. All of them turned out to be Seagate exos. Have been great.

I have 6x10TB HGST (Ex Supermicro server) SAS drives. Unsure on hours as I bought them from eBay in October last year and never used them (all my other drives are SATA and I bought these ones by mistake). 

 

I paid $913.79 for the lot so you're welcome to take them for an even $900.

I might have some, I recall I had some from an old server, I'll hunt them out and see what I've got. (I had some 8 and 4 from memory)
