8 -12TB needed

kingtiger

Need 4x drives with around 8-12TB storage space for a FreeNas server with old components I have lying around

Any advice on where to buy? would prefer to avoid UK sites with import fees

Thanks

edit: external drives preferable as I can just shuck them and they usually work out cheaper

There's no customs on PC parts

Aren’t essential computer parts exempt from customs?

anyway, if you order off Amazon.co.uk, the price it shows you at checkout is Irish vat if sending to Irish address so they calculate it all for you, so no surprises

ah well f me, just looked it up hard drives are in fact Duty free

thanks for that lads, an early new years gift!!

You arent looking at the right sellers so. Mine arrived from DHL from Germany last week. Sellers in Frankfurt.
