Hey all you beautiful selfhosters,

What are your suggestions for frugally obtaining HDDs in the current economic climate? Specifically the EU (Netherlands).

I'm looking at second hand drives, but even those go for €100+ now, with bad sectors and all.

Can we organise a collective AI datacenter robbery and doll out some stolen drives? 😁

What size are you looking for? I paid ~150€ for 12tb refurbished and ~200 for 8tb new. Don't think you could get a high capacity drive for 100 even before the crisis
