March 19, 201313 yr Wow, prices are coming down fast: Seagate Backup Plus 4 TB USB 3.0 Desktop External Hard Drive STCA4000100 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00829THLE And free shipping on top.
March 20, 201313 yr Is this one 4 TB drive, two 2 TB or some other combination of multiple drives? This is one 4TB drive. You can rip these out and throw them into unraid no prob? Yes, I just got back from Best Buy, had them pricematch to Amazon and it took me 5 min to get it out of the case. I have done this a dozen times though, first one took me about 15 min. There are several videos on youtube that show how to take it apart. Best Buy had 4 drives, 3 DX and 1 DM. I only want DM drives. I currently have 8 of these DM drives in one of my unRaid servers, running great. DX drives run too hot for me. Ordering from Amazon, you may get a DX you may get a DM. Here is how you can tell the difference from looking at the box. Here is some drive details and performance testing between the DX and DM drives. I did order 2 from Amazon also, and I will return them if they turn out to be DX drives.
March 21, 201313 yr Looks like this is dead, Amazon price is now back up to $179. I got my 2 drives delivered today, both of the are DM drives!
