Best value right now
A ‘deal’ here isn’t a flashing-banner discount — it’s the lowest genuine cost per terabyte available in each category right now, measured against that category’s typical price. We judge value by comparing every product’s $/TB to the median for its category: the further a product sits below its category’s middle, the better the value. No fake countdowns, no invented original prices — just the cheapest real terabyte in each type, updated from live data.

Deals — how we judge value
What makes something a ‘deal’ on this site?+
A low real cost per terabyte relative to its category — nothing else. We compare each product’s $/TB to the median for its category; the further below the median, the better the value. We never show fake original prices, countdown timers or invented scarcity.
Why is the cheapest deal often a used or enterprise drive?+
Because retired datacenter drives and bulk media offer the most capacity per dollar. Used enterprise SAS drives and LTO tape routinely deliver the lowest $/TB anywhere. They’re excellent value for secondary and archival tiers — just verify health and keep proper backups.
How often do the deals change?+
The lists read live from our catalog data, so they reflect the latest tracked prices whenever you load the page. The cheapest product in a category can change as prices move, so it’s worth checking back before a big purchase.
