In addition to their eBay store, East Digital have setup an overseas Shopify store which is cheaper. As per the previous deals warranty is 3 years via them. Check previous deals for comments and check eBay Feedback. Shipping is either via FedEx and is really quick, or a few people from the previous deal including myself delivery was via Hong Kong Post which took 10 days to arrive.

A few from the last post have had to return for warranties. Return labels were provided and it looks like they have a local address for Returns in Kerrimuir VIC going by comments in the last post with either replacements or refunds provided.

They have the following pricing for brand new OEM drives with 3 year warranty-

• Seagate 14TB ST14000NM001G Exos X16 512e 3.5" SATA - $233

      Yes, the chances are high. I bought a brand new 1x Seagate 16TB ST16000NM001G Exos X16 512e 6Gb 3.5 SATA Enterprise Hard Drive and got it DOA.

        I have bought 4 of these all fine. So it's random.

          @rusty1256: I do wonder if it's the lottery of delivery. And how many G's the drives are subjected to.

          My son dropped a 20tb drive off a table onto a wooden floor. It wasn't powered on but it died. Made some very loud noises and that was that.

            @Vladdo: tbh if you drop any drive its a 50/50 if its going to work again

  Just adding my experience so far;
  Seagate 22Tb EXOS factory recertified;
  3 orders, each of 2 drives.

  Drives 1 and 2: perfect. I stress tested drive 1 and it was fine. Drive 2 I just put in my array and it was fine
  Drives 3 and 4: perfect. Straight into the RAID without issue.
  Drives 5 and 6: arrived with a dint in the box. Both DOA. Make nasty noises when trying to spin up. I'm guessing the box was dropped at some stage in the delivery process. Have just messaged East Digital HK via their website - reports here seem to be that they replace drives quite readily.

  The HDD packaging seems entirely appropriate and secure - all 3 orders came shipped the same way.
