What do you think about this hdd?

[Perrichicken]

 

Seagate Cheetah NS.2 SCSI 600GB 10K RPM

They are selling for $5 each, in good condition apparently

Does this seem like a good deal? Are these  HDDs good for a NAS or desktop? was looking to get a few

From a local listing

Thanks

If they are selling them for $5 then are they working drives? Those types of drives can cost upwards of $140 each.

Those are some good drives. Never used them before but they are 10K RPM which is nice and from Seagate which is a reliable HDD brand. They will probably work great in NAS or desktop.

The ad doesn't say anything about not working which I would of thought is something you would say, just says removed from old NAS, he has 38x for sale, surely all 38 arent working.

They probably wont run on a sata controller...

On ebay? Kijiji? where? You can always contact the person and ask if they are working.

dont these drives use SAS interface? they dont use SATA so you would need adapters or add-in cards to run them on regular motherboards
