    It’s cute how OP is comparing enterprise-grade HDDs with 5y warranty, with the trashiest consumer-grade SSDs with 2y warranty, some of which are QLC garbage that cannot be reliably used for long-term storage.

      My thoughts exactly… and in Euro’s as well.

      Compare them to US prices and WD Red’s and the picture looks a lot different.

          So you are contending a $200 18TB WD Red/Easystore is 183 Euro? Where are you buying these Easystores for $183 Euro? I’m sure a lot of Europeans would love to know.

          Uhh?? Because the drives are fucking more expensive in Europe? The same 18TB drive in the is $200 and by your stupid fucking logic, it’s 183 Euro. Does that sound right to you? Fuck no, get a fucking clue. Euro drive prices do not track reality of drive prices, which is one of the reasons this chart is complete shit. Euro drive prices are basically random amounts disconnected from the actual price paid in the US.
