I’ve had a hard drive throw a fault on my truenas zfs pool, so probably need to buy a replacement. I know about serverpartdeals, but seem to recall another fairly cheap refurb hard drive seller when I bought these 4 years ago. I just don’t remember the name. What retailers are you using for hard drives these days if you have a failure?

In the US btw.

I’ll also try just reseating cables in a bit once the scrub finishes. (just in case that’s all it is)

ETA: the other retailer is goharddrive.com. I’m still interested to hear other suggestions if anyone has them.

Edit2: luckily reseating power and sata cables appear to have fixed it for now. the drive is resilvering, so hopefully I’m good. Thanks everyone for the recommendations, as I know one will fail at some point.

    I have several dozen TB of serverpartdeals darddrives. Us based seller. They are extremely professional and prompt and their packaging was incredible.
