UPDATE: Many users are reporting cancelled orders due to a pricing error

Amazon have now started emailing to advise of the cancellation and are giving $30 vouchers per order. You can check your coupons here. For the record my order of 3 was cancelled and I received the $30 gift voucher too. The drives would have been great but I'm also pretty happy with this compensation. Congratulations to anyone who gets their order delivered.

Insane price for the 10TB WD My Book external hard drive. Limit to 3 per customer, and remember to use cashback. I grabbed 3 for $389.52 + Free Delivery with Prime.

Features

Auto backup with included WD Backup software and Time Machine compatibility
Password protection with hardware encryption
Trusted storage built with WD reliability
USB 3.0 port; USB 2.0 compatible
3-year manufacturer's limited warranty

      I order one of this before you post this deal ,, ~5pm ,, no shipping details as yet, though the money deducted.

    a reminder to register your drive once it arrived, and open a support ticket to request an Australian plug power supply.

    They will send it via Fedex.

    I've got two sent to me (2 separate drives)

    just make sure they send the Australian plug, not the multi-plug which has the Chinese one. They've done this twice so I had to ask them to send the AU one.

    This is all free of charge

    • Steptoe on 20/05/2019 - 16:11

    Hey guy's long time lurker first time posting….just wanted to add that my order has been locked and from what the rep i spoke to said it won't be shipped..Hope everyone else has better luck in the Hard Drive lotto..Here is a few lines from the chat i had with the rep.

    He also stated to me that if any orders where shipped they would be canceled and refunded.

    12:11 PM AEST Siraj Ahmed: I have just checked and could see this item is no longer available with amazon as of now because there was a listing error.

    I'm not sure if this item will be shipped.

    WD My Book Desktop External Hard Drive 10TB

    12:11 PM AEST Siraj Ahmed: Any order shipped shall be returned to warehouse and refund will be issued.

    12:12 PM AEST Siraj Ahmed: Because it is from US warehouse it should be canceled very soon

        I've had orders shipped across the US, before being cancelled and shipped back. :\ Their supply chain often doesn't end until the thing is just about at your door.

        When I asked why it was cancelled they chastised me for ordering something that clearly said it didn't ship to Australia (it did when I ordered it, OBVIOUSLY)…

        • vash12 on 20/05/2019 - 14:59

          Wow, so the chances that someone will actually get the hdd is pretty low?

      Don't get why someone neg'ed you. I know we all want ours delivered, but deep down, we know this deal is too good to be true unfortunately.
      Oh well… my mates who missed out won't be upset then.

      • Merlict on 20/05/2019 - 12:45

        I've had a fair few OzB deals that were too good to be true / the seller was making a loss. I can see (some) people getting these.

        • netsurfer on 20/05/2019 - 12:48

          Agreed. First lot / dispatched ones - congratulations to those.

          However, for slow people like me, with 1000+ orders from OZB and two weeks for Amazon to react (since most of ours are on backorder), the chance of Amazon being that slow and fail to correct a pricing error is low.

          • [Deactivated] on 20/05/2019 - 14:06

            @netsurfer: Amazon is in control of the logistics they can and have cancelled and recalled shipped orders in the past, unfortunately. Not the same thing as other sellers who hand off to another courier earlier in the process.

    • TomGum on 20/05/2019 - 12:39

      Why was it locked? Can you show a screenshot what it looks like if it’s locked?

      Any order shipped shall be returned to warehouse and refund will be issued

      That doesn't make sense. Why would anyone receiving the item(s) bother wasting time returning them for a refund? They would just keep the item(s).

        I've had amazon cancel an order due to a price error after it already shipped and had arrived in Australia, but hadn't yet been delivered. Was shipped back to America.

          Thanks for the info, so their couriers can intercept and have the items shipped back to Amazon… :(

            +1

            @netsurfer: Amazon usually 'is' the courier, in the US up to the door, for Australia, at least until it's on a plane on its way here.

            • netsurfer on 20/05/2019 - 15:11

              @[Deactivated]: Raistlin indicated the item actually arrived in Australia (which meant it was either DHL, UPS or AusPost) and still got sent back.

              • [Deactivated] on 20/05/2019 - 15:49

                @netsurfer: Since they opened here they might be actually handling the US > AU connection themselves now, not sure.

                • netsurfer on 20/05/2019 - 16:04

                  @[Deactivated]: Not here, not yet. Even Amazon USA still rely on USPS, UPS, FedEx and DHL. They're trying out last leg in some US cities, but still early days.

                  With such high volume, they are the VIP for every logistics company.

                  • [Deactivated] on 20/05/2019 - 18:53

                    @netsurfer: Will be a long time before they do the last leg here, but looked it up to be sure for the flight portion, looks like only 39 aircraft so far, none flying outside the US. (Although they do make it as far as Hawaii.)

                    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Air

                    Guessing these orders, particularly if 3x drives will be large enough to be worth recalling through a third party.

    Just a confirmation email and shipping as of the third.

    • netsurfer on 20/05/2019 - 12:51

      That e-mail is pretty useless (a lot of people have it). That's 2 weeks from now and if Amazon CSR already noticed this is a pricing error, 2 weeks is plenty of time for them to cancel.

      • Matt86 on 20/05/2019 - 12:57

    Are you able to put this external hard drive on its side? As I don’t think it will fit next to my Xbox one when standing up

    • TomGum on 20/05/2019 - 13:51

      I prefer side ways. A lot safer from being nocked over.

      • Twisty on 20/05/2019 - 14:00

        Does it have little rubbers or something so it can be put sideways?

        • mortyestmorty on 20/05/2019 - 14:17
          +1

          I have an 8TB MyBook and it only has rubber feet on the bottom so it sits vertically. Western Digital don't recommend putting it on its side because of the potential for overheating. They have vents on top, and because heat rises, putting it on its side means it won't dissipate heat as efficiently and may shorten the drive's life.

          • Twisty on 20/05/2019 - 14:28

            @mortyestmorty: What are the measurements of it standing?

            • mortyestmorty on 20/05/2019 - 14:56

              @Twisty: 170mm high, 140mm deep and 50mm wide. I think WD also recommend it having a little breathing space on the sides as well as the top.

        • Dave Id on 20/05/2019 - 15:20

        Agreed. Hell, I'd dynabolt them to the floor, with a heavy cage over the top… if i could. I had an external drive on its side, microscopic bump of the cable, and it was a slow-motion NOOOOoooOOOoo topple… couldn't grab it in time. INSTANT DEATH. They're DESKTOP drives, truly designed to be inside a computer.
        Dumbest design i've seen, ~10 years ago, was single drive standing VERTICAL, with small footprint. BEGGING to topple. /facepalm

        Yes, what does that have to do with cancelling my order, I was on promo prime, then cancelled to free and now again on on pay prime, paid. And I had orderes before. Doesn't make any sense at all.

      • abacus on 21/05/2019 - 00:56

        Thanks for reply. I didn't do any checks, is this usual to do? The HD comes formatted with exFat and I couldn't add or delete files from drive but could open any file. I reformatted to NTFS and started again. We have video surveillance and the guy from Toll just dropped the Amazon box, which had no padding inside the box, on the concrete step at the front door. Should be interesting who is responsible if he broke the drive, Toll, Amazon for no padding, or WD?
