No need to shuck, 3 year warranty, CMR. These prices are best in over a year I've seen (correct me if I'm wrong). I bought a seagate 10tb to shuck last year, but haven't seen any bare drives this cheap for a while. Jumped on 2x8.

2x8 is 17.18 / TB
2x10 is 17.50 / TB

if it sways your decision either way.

8.99 UPS is the cheapest shipping option they had.

Something is wrong with this deal, they are selling a single 4tb we red plus for the same price?

Yeah...I'm a little confused by this myself. If you click to the individual drive page, the price for each drive is the same as the "2-pack" page. It's basically buy one get one free.

There's that little bit of text at the bottom that says if you buy two then there's some sort of savings but if you add two to your cart, there is no additional discount. So maybe it is buy one get one free? I don't know...

Is this a price error maybe?

Is something wrong? The bundles have the same price as the single drives.

it's about the price of a good deal before the chia crypto. 2 drive for the price of 1 seam like a price error. Hope they will honnor.

If you scroll down to the "Package Content" section though, it says (in the case of the 10TB drive) "2 x Western Digital RED Plus 10TB NAS Hard Drive"...

that would be illegal, the order is clearly for 2 drive, if it's a price error they can cancel(?) but can't ship half of it or double the price.

Part #'s are off, but inventory levels are the same for the ones with "2-pack bundle" in the name vs the reg drives.

Amazing deal if this is what it says e.g. 129.99 for 2 4TB drives.
