Guess Seagate will continue getting my money then.. though via recertified options as I want the 28TB models.

What a joke.

That resilvering time though, fuck that. I have enough stress as it is.

so like, what do they actually mean? are they getting paid to withhold them or what?

probably just market segmentation - they likley calculated that the EU market doesn't have enough demand to justify the logistics/certification costs for those models.
