Also B&H has a reputation for shipping same day (depending on the time of day you place your order), or early the next day.
I have no information on whether or not Western Digital will charge for shipping, or how long they take to ship.
An even lower price $278.83 ($15.49 per TB) is available from:
They are UK imports.
I had once purchased from them, and got my order the next day (in New Jersey).
However, their included power bricks do not work on USA outlets. I managed to get bricks from Western Digitial, and it was not easy. If you know how to shop for a 3rd party, compatible power brick for a low price, then this might be appealing to you.
I had not considered newegg, due to “egregious customer service shortcomings”, as Gamers Nexus put it.
Also, the newegg listing that you listed is sold by “STYYCOQREEN”.
I have no idea who “STYYCOQREEN” is. They have only 3 ratings, with a 67% positive average.
I will never patronize newegg, unless I am desperate.
Fair enough but my point is many retailers are selling external for under $300 for months. Internal are there now too.
I have bought over 60 hdd from server parts deals and never had an issue. If you buy in bulk they sometimes can cut like $10 off per hdd, sometimes their prices are just so good they dont offer bulk discounts. Either way i stand behind them and suggest you give them a look.
Server parts deals. I posted s screenshot from their website earlier. They are selling internal seagate x18 for $300 no shipping fees or taxes.
If you order over 20 its worth contacting them for a little more off. They are regularly the cheapest or one of the cheapest vendors. And like i said I’ve bought over 60 hdd from them, seagate, wd, 18tb and 20tb, sata and sas.
