    10US dollar per TB?? 🤣🤣 More like 30/35€ per TB for a good graded HDD!

    Let’s not talk about SSDs or nvme which are more in the 120€/TB.

    I always hear people say that storage comes cheap nowaday… I’m still looking for that cheap HDD on amazon… It has been 10 years 🤣🤣

        US of A often has way lower hdd prices compared to Europe.

        Take the serverpartdeals price and add shipping and import tax.
