SOLD!

i suppose i could do some transfer rate tests via hdtune to check. however, i won't be able to do them until i get home. currently at the office.

willing to do $70 shipped, or if you buy both, i'll do $130 shipped for the two. PM me if interested.

Willing to take offers on one or both drives shipped. Don't be shy, these are just sitting here with no use to me right now. Send me a PM if interested, thanks.

appreciate that man!

Selling yet another one of my pre-cleared spare 2tb drives. I've picked up another 3 tb drive so i have this one to sell. My asking price is $80 shipped within the continental US (or we can negotiate). This drive has never been used with the exception of passing 2 pre-clear cycles in unraid. I sold an identical drive to a buyer on here a few months ago, I hope he can vouch for me. Drive will be packed securely for shipment. If interested, feel free to send me a PM. edit: I actually have two of these drives available

as i begin to transition towards 3tb drives, i'll be listing my other backup (reserve) 2TB drives. they are all the same model, ST2000DM001, and have all been pre-cleared with 2 cycles on each. currently, i have 3 which have seen no use aside from the pre-clear process. i should be picking up some 3TB drives this weekend, so i'll keep this thread up to date when drives are available for sale. if interested, i will be selling them at the same price ($90 shipped to continental US). feel free to respond here or PM me in case you want to reserve one or have questions.

parcel shipping is about 8 bucks. but i'll do $90 total. don't mind eating a few bucks on the shipping. Sounds good. Paypal info? [email protected]

I have a spare 2TB seagate drive i had intended to use with my unraid server. It has passed 2 pre-clear cycles and has been stored as a spare in case of a disk failure (never seen any use besides preclear cycles). However, my lovely wife decided to get me a 3tb drive for my birthday so i no longer need this drive. The drive still has warranty through seagate, expires on dec 5, 2014. Here is a link to the identical drive from newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148834 My asking price for the drive is $85 + any applicable shipping charges. Hard drive is already packed securely (in a box i received a warranty replacement from seagate) and ready to be shipped. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

i've had this experience as well from time to time. although it isn't a fix, i've found that immediately after teracopy gives the error and completes it's 60 second retry, i can try again with success. don't know if it's a chipset problem or not, but i've noticed that this usually happens on drives that are more "full" than others.

the settings won't be in your motherboard's bios. you need to wait until AFTER your motherboard's bios loads, then the controller card's bios would load next. it will require a key press similar to ctrl+m or something.

seagate has them branded as ST2000DL004 but they are identical to the samsung f4 drives. i got a ST2000DL004 as a warranty replacement and unraid sees it as a samsung f4 drive. works all the same.

on the right hand side it shows "more buying choices" with amazon being one of them @ 159.99

no the drive doesn't show any pending or reallocated sectors. Then yes, it could very well be the backplane of the hot swap bay or the SATA cable itself ok. well i ruled out the possibility of the sata cable by swapping in another breakout cable and was able to recreate the issue. will rma the hot swap bay and call it a day. thanks everyone
