Newegg is offering a 2-pack of Seagate IronWold 8TB NAS 3.5-inch Internal Hard Drives for $379.99 shipped. For comparison, you’d pay $430 to buy two of these drives from Amazon right now with today’s deal saving you 15%. Whether you have a NAS or DAS that you need to fill with storage, Seagate’s IronWolf drives are a great choice. You’ll find 256MB of cache and 7200RPM speeds here, which combine to deliver killer data transfer rates for networked storage. You can either use RAID0 or JBOD to get 16TB of storage out of these drives, or add them to an existing array to expand your data collection capabilities, the choice is yours. Rated 4.7/5 stars.
Personally, I generally prefer WD Red drives in my NAS. While both Seagate IronWolf and WD Red are very similar, if you’re more on the WD side of things, a 6TB drive will set you back $150. You won’t get quite as much storage as today’s lead deal, but even picking up two for a combined 12TB of capacity will only set you back a total of $300, leaving an additional $80 in your pocket.
