I found this its the cheapest 10TB Exos drive on Newegg and looking to buy 4 of them. I will be putting them in my NAS that I use for my media library and pc backups. The price I’m posting this is $130, I’m also looking similar Exos drives that are $250 is there a difference? Should I shell up for the more expensive drives?

    I noticed when they first spin up on boot they do some sub routine and they’re pretty loud and chatty. First time I heard it I was spooked but it worked fine and I just use it for backup so I just moved on. Once it’s on and in normal operation it’s like any other disk I’ve used over the decades. Nothing as loud as an old scsci disk or a quantum fireball.
