There's currently a sale on the Western Digital website. I was thinking of getting the Red Pros since they're high capacity and relatively quiet. In a previous post I made on the datahoarders community, I was looking for an HDD that was basically silent since the NAS will be next to my desk where I WFH.

Currently, two 18 TB drives are going for $620 or about $17.22 per TB. Not the best deal but definitely better than their normal price. I know a lot of people like buying used drives but the ones for sale are usually loud enterprise edition drives which won't work for me. Should I buy the drives now or wait until BF for a possibly better sale?

@impudentmortal If American, buy now. If not American, buy later. America is shitting in their own shopping bag right now, so I recommend buying before you get shit. If you’re not American, wait until they drag the shittimg lunatic out of the global economy, then buy all the products they left on the shelves.
