Drives are just about impossible to get your hands on right now. 

 

One of my 6TB NAS drives sucked the kumera last week. 

 

Looking for a WD Red or Red Pro, must be CMR, Ironwolf or Ironwolf Pro OK too. 

 

I don't mind second hand, but zero faults and relatively low run times. 

 

I'm in Auckland.

Not sure if of interest (and USD) but I have been sourcing from Water Panther in the US (last year). Well priced, rebadged, came quickly and didn’t get stung for duty.

Thanks. I hadn't heard of them before, $60 USD in shipping though!
