    Mother of pearl. Could you open this thing up and just use the HDD's?

    • Ahan on 15/08/2014 - 12:53

      Pretty sure yes…

      • vid_ghost on 15/08/2014 - 15:01

        yep.. warranty voided though

        • alvian on 15/08/2014 - 15:23
          +4

          I don't think the warranty would be voided. Visit this page, click "Overview", go to bottom of page, and it reads "User serviceable. Want to upgrade a drive? Simply open the case and replace the existing drive – no screwdriver needed".

    The 6TB comes to $240

    • vid_ghost on 15/08/2014 - 15:08

      Where's the link to the 6TB hard drive?

  • go2home on 15/08/2014 - 12:57

    Bought one, crazy price!

  • Twisty on 15/08/2014 - 12:59

    Does the WDShop have a Return Policy. I wanna buy for my Dad but if he doesn't want it can I return it?

    • msmhw on 15/08/2014 - 13:00
      +1

      yes they have but I think you need to pay the postage to return the item

  • Naed on 15/08/2014 - 12:59

    Awesome find! As Western Digital gets swamped with orders I just hope this doesn't get cancelled as a pricing error. I have a 4TB unraid server at home in a N40L but this deal is sorely tempting for the drives alone.

  • ElWircho on 15/08/2014 - 12:59

    Top notch, scored a 4TB for 160 smackers. Thanks!

  • xdivino on 15/08/2014 - 13:02

    All seem to average out to $40 per TB which is sweet!
    except the above 8TB one.

    any comments on how these go as a PLEX media server, all I would use it for…TV and movies

    • Ahan on 15/08/2014 - 13:33
      +5

      From another post, alittlelewd
      Whilst it's a great $/GB ratio, it's a pretty average NAS that can't be used as a Plex server or download torrents even.

      • Infinite Monkee on 15/08/2014 - 13:39

        ok thanks man, I will skip this and just wait a bit.

      • edfoo on 15/08/2014 - 13:58

        Thanks Ahan for your info. I am currently using a QNAP NAS with two 1Tb WD green drives for past few years. It has served well as file storage and even downloading torrents, but its old CPU is too slow for Plex server. Seems like this My Book Live Duo is even worse. Move along.

      • Phoebus on 15/08/2014 - 15:23

        Get a beefy NAS in raid 0 for performance and use the MyCloud to do automated backups of your NAS.

        • edfoo on 15/08/2014 - 20:27

          Phoebus, how much would those setup cost in total? Still qualified as OzBargain?

        • Phoebus on 16/08/2014 - 19:45

          @edfoo:
          There's nothing 'wrong' with the speed of this thing. However if you're not satisfied then this would be good as a backup to your primary performance NAS. Other consideration is the apps for this device are limited, but for it's primary purpose, storage, it serves its purpose.

  • cruttie on 15/08/2014 - 13:08

    Awesome! Thanks msmhw and bonbon

      The My Book Live Duo comes with 2 x 4TB GREEN DRIVES in it. :(
      NOT RED DRIVES!

    Thought about getting it, but not going to due to the Amazon reviews. Seems like in many cases both drives can fail??!?!?! on Raid 1…I guess you are better of with the HP from earlier: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/156711

  • ComfortablyNumb on 15/08/2014 - 13:11

    Got a 6TB, thanks very much!

    • scottb721 on 15/08/2014 - 22:20

    Can't find any high capacity internal drives. Looking for a 4TB unit :-)

  • dexx on 15/08/2014 - 13:12

    I cant get the 20% discount to apply. Has it changed? clearing cache didnt help

    • msmhw on 15/08/2014 - 13:15

      still working for me, if you logged in to your WD account try to log out and clear your history and cashes

    • stebie on 15/08/2014 - 13:28

      After following the instructions, I initially didn't get the 20% discount appear either, so I clicked the link at Step 1 (again) and when the page loaded I noticed in the top-right corner the cart dollar amount reduce to the expected amount - in my case AU$319.99.

      • ashikk on 15/08/2014 - 14:16

    • 93_infinity on 15/08/2014 - 14:56

      And why is there always a deal immediately after I buy one of lesser value and of lower specs, guaranteed?

      Argh! I don't think people would pay much for a used HD, even if it has only been used for days.

  • Krazyy on 15/08/2014 - 13:14

    What kind of drives will be inside? How many drives in total?

  • Reddog888 on 15/08/2014 - 13:14

    don't need one, but bought it already ….bloody greed……

  • XucCac on 15/08/2014 - 13:17

    So if in raid 1 u only get 4gb of usable space??

    • Krazyy on 15/08/2014 - 13:18

        Yeh 4tb i mean… If so maybe only good for cloud for phones n tabletsss

  • sleepy buyer on 15/08/2014 - 13:20

    is this model getting phased out?
    is that why they are so cheap?!

    • Obake on 15/08/2014 - 13:28

      Same here, but I convinced myself I needed it. Then the OT got updated with the list of promo items so used another browser to order a 4TB drive as well!

      Try another browser? Got a 8TB 10 minutes after your post.

  • Twisty on 15/08/2014 - 13:34

    Is the 8TB one have USB and if yes is it USB 3?

    • KOBH on 15/08/2014 - 13:35

      USB 2.0 only.

      • Twisty on 15/08/2014 - 13:37

        How would it go running it into a AC Wifi Router to my iMac?

    Looking at the fourth pic on scorptec's site - it seems to be extremely easy to get access to the drives:

    • PonyTable on 15/08/2014 - 14:24

      Fingers crossed its that easy! planning on putting my 2 x 2TB drives (old ones from my NAS) into the WD enclosure after I gut it for the 2x 4TB's!

    • 51722 on 15/08/2014 - 14:32

      This is designed to be serviceable. It is quite literally a feature that WD advertises.
