Buying used Ironwolf

[Diddlydennis]

yay or nay, I need a replacement as my 8TB seagate external has died. it started beeping and won't show up anymore.

 

The ironwolf HDD seller showed me this, does it look good?

Only just over 8000 hours, that's pretty good, still a lot of life left in it.

I don't see any obvious problems.

Thank you, gutted my 8tb died and need a replacement asap. Not sure if there's anything else I need to ask the seller or look out for?

No, unless I'm missing something you should be good to go.

Screenshot doesn't show the actual SMART values like it should, but seems fine.

Lost the ironwolf listing but can I use this in my PC with no issue to store stuff?

It's a SATA drive so yes.
