Where do you get a 12 tb drive for $100?
Yeah, that's crazy.
I guess all those $100 deals were used too.
So I guess at least used prices went down?
But I remember years ago a shuckable 12tb for like $120-140 on sale wasnt unusual on buildapcsales.
I used to use https://shucks.top/ a lot while looking for deals to fill up my NAS... the site doesn't work now because of API things, but you can still see their historic "best price" and even the 8TB wd external drives barely got down to $120, so I'm not sure where you were seeing 12tb for $120 regularly. For brand new drives, like $12-13/tb was a good deal. $12/tb was generally low and rare enough I'd basically instabuy it.
