To add, I am in Canada so Shipping, Cost and Warranty are factors.

I’ve heard on other forums that https://serverpartdeals.com/ is highly recommended, but I am skeptical on using refurbished or recertified drives.

    Damn, these prices are so overpriced. I can find same HD in amazon for less and those in amazon still expensive.

        I did search and didn’t find anything better in amazon, I guess they sold out. Amazon pricing is crap as well. Newegg has similar price to wd.com but you can add coupons there. I try to add coupon in wd.com but it made the price more expensive than without coupon… ebay has better pricing but they is a lot of scams selling used drives as new since they delete the usage data.

        I am on edge of buying a seagate on ebay but not sure. Since they selling it as new but I did some research on them in reddit and some old posts said that ebay seller use software to delete the usage data… What I learned is that buying hard drives on blackfriday and cyber Monday is a terrible idea. I even saw prices in cyber Monday go up in price.
