[FS] 80x WD Ultrastar HC530 14TB / HC520 12TB SAS — parts/recovery bulk lot ($4/TB)
Got these from a decommissioned data center. Selling as one bulk lot, for parts — not tested individually given the volume, sold as-is.
Mix of conditions: some won't spin up, rest have read/write/growth errors. All SAS interface — confirm your controller/backplane supports that before buying.
Sold as-is, no warranty.
Asking $4/TB for the full lot.

Total: 80 drives / 1,108 TB / $4,432
Prefer local sale/pickup in MD. Willing to ship at buyer's expense, but it'll be expensive given the weight. Please comment "PM" before reaching out.

[FS][US-MD] 36x WD Ultrastar HC530 14TB SAS + 1x HC520 12TB SAS — Defect / Parts Lot
Timestamps/photos: https://imgur.com/a/Fh8gqCp
Selling a lot of 37 enterprise drives as-is. These are SAS, not SATA — you need a SAS controller/HBA. Do not buy these expecting SATA compatibility.
Breakdown:
- 32x WD Ultrastar HC530 14TB SAS — spin up and report SMART, but all carry errors ranging from low to high.
- 4x WD Ultrastar HC530 14TB SAS — not spinning up, for parts.
- 1x WD Ultrastar HC520 12TB SAS — not spinning up, for parts.
Good for testing, sorting, or harvesting. Sold as-is, no warranty, all sales final.
Price: $2,900 for the whole lot ($6.50/TB on the 32 SMART-reporting drives, with the 5 non-spinning drives included free for parts) OBO.
I highly prefer local pickup in MD . This lot is roughly 60 lbs and shipping will be very expensive, local is strongly preferred. I can ship at buyer's cost if needed, but expect a high freight/box cost on a package this heavy.
Payment: PayPal G&S or cash on local pickup. Please comment "PM" before messaging.

Defective lot and parts drives: no warranty, sold as-is, final sale. Priced accordingly – good for parts, testing, or non-critical use.
