    Slightly cheaper book
    https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/1338306359

  • nevergofullretail on 19/04/2023 - 07:20

    wow that is cheap! thanks! Now to find a deal on a NAS Server!

  • jaknz on 19/04/2023 - 07:26

    Great find! I was just about to buy two new drives to go with my new NAS, so I got the 5% off by default too.

  • zoller on 19/04/2023 - 07:36

    You legend! I just bought 6x 8TB drives for an absolute bargain! I've been eyeing up NAS drives for months thank you so much

    • L3tstaxth1s on 19/04/2023 - 14:13

      Just curious why you need that much storage?

        Redundancy - don’t want to risk losing any Linux ISOs

      • zoller on 19/04/2023 - 15:19

        copying my comment from another thread: the risk of data loss on a single drive is too high for me, there is some data that my mrs would kill me for if I lost, so multiple drives are setup using zfs + an offsite backup that means only a nuclear bomb will cause us to lose some precious memories and data. also radarr + sonarr

  • Rakka on 19/04/2023 - 07:37

    I have a couple of 8GB drives literally enoute from the US. Have requested a refunding and bought 12GB drives for the same price. Thanks so much for posting.

  • Tmurder91 on 19/04/2023 - 07:38

    8TB Barracuda is gone.
    Everything else still available.

    Done an order, but expecting it might be cancelled as a pricing error?

    • SloBurn on 19/04/2023 - 07:43

      Doesn't seem to be out of stock, can still order it…?

      • Tmurder91 on 19/04/2023 - 07:52

        It’s showing as original price now. Originally it was 41% off or something. I think like ~$120

        • coffeee on 19/04/2023 - 08:18

          have they deducted from your account yet?

          • Tmurder91 on 19/04/2023 - 08:51

            @coffeee: Not yet, which doesn’t instil too much confidence.
            The pricing looks to be the same as the USD pricing on amazon.com so potentially they loaded AUD instead of USD value

            • coffeee on 19/04/2023 - 12:12

              @Tmurder91: They usually put a hold on the money but it hasn't happened yet, most likely an error then.

          • CanSerMan on 19/04/2023 - 08:55

            @coffeee: It won't be that quick since Amazon only deducts once the good is shipped.

            I ordered 2x8TB too so hopefully they update it by the end of this week considering they're from Amazon US

          • ace310 on 19/04/2023 - 08:55

            @coffeee: Normally amazon deducts when the item is shipped.

  • CanSerMan on 19/04/2023 - 07:44

    Was really surprised to see the price on Amazon this morning. Good to see it's already posted here.

  • rolex on 19/04/2023 - 07:49

    Thanks Wakrak

    Will order (2 x 8) or (1 x 16/18) or ((1 x 8) + (1 x 16/18)) but struggling how to effectively work the 'Buy 2 save 5%' into things ?

    • Tmurder91 on 19/04/2023 - 07:55

      The book that he shared in the post, or the kids book above in the comments is eligible for the buy 2 items for 5% discount. You just need to add the book to your order if you’re ordering a single drive.

      A 16TB is the better model and cheaper even when buying a book too, compared to 2x 8TB

      • rolex on 19/04/2023 - 08:00
        +1

        Got it, just a bit slow, thats all.

        So… yeah the thing w/larger drives, when they go bad, its a larger drive you loose.

        For that reason solely the last few times we've bought, we've purposely again gone w/more 8's

        The 16/18's are often slightly cheaper per TB now but yeah, when one goes bad, it's 'twice as bad'

        Have ordered thanks again W

  • RockCartel on 19/04/2023 - 07:49

    Get in quick if you want one!
    The 18TB is now $730
    "We updated this item to the best offer currently available at Amazon. The price increased by $451.55"

    • coffeee on 19/04/2023 - 08:14

      yea i was contemplating on 2, so only got 1x20tb for backup not mirror now ;(.

  • fake on 19/04/2023 - 08:03

    Bummer, none of the 14TBs are on sale.

  • notmyusername on 19/04/2023 - 08:37

      Damn, missed this. Would've been nice to get this instead of the drawing book. Well, at least my niece/nephew are going to be happy.

  • Christo on 19/04/2023 - 09:12

    Can you use these drives as regular external storage drives in a external enclosure?

    • rolex on 19/04/2023 - 09:20

      Yes.

  • Hibino on 19/04/2023 - 09:14

    Looks like the same price error on Amazon AU few months ago that did not do the currency conversion from Amazon UK so few things are selling at same digit of GBP but at AUD. I ordered few things and all got cancelled. This time Amazon AU might do the same.

    • Nil Einne on 19/04/2023 - 10:22

      Yeah this was mentioned on OzBargain as well. The weird thing is although the dollars values are all the same cents aren't as USD are all .99 and AU are semi random. Does Amazon AU or US automatically adjust cent values or is it the person listing the prices free to decide cent values or something?

  • doxx on 19/04/2023 - 09:19

    thankyou for posting this, ordered the 12TB and the SD card,

    great price

  • tonyLtony on 19/04/2023 - 09:21

    Planning to build a synology nas in a couple of months so grabbed a 12tb one. Thanks

  • Detruire on 19/04/2023 - 09:30

    I'm tempted to order enough drives to re-fill my NAS, but the total would be over $1000NZ and I don't want to be hit with a bunch of extra customs fees. It seems like those fees would only be ~$70 total, but it's unclear to me if that's really everything. :/

    • Wakrak on 19/04/2023 - 09:31

      Do it in two separate orders?

      • Detruire on 19/04/2023 - 09:41

        Customs may combine shipment values for duty/GST if the shipments arrive too close together, so I'm unsure whether that would work. This page says "multiple orders that arrive on the same day from the same supplier", although other wording there implies that if GST and duty aren't charged, then no other fees will be charged either.

        • Stoic on 19/04/2023 - 09:43
          +1

          Make the second order under a different name.

          • Tmurder91 on 19/04/2023 - 10:00

            @Stoic: And get it shipped to a friend/family house too. That way they are clearly going to be showing as different orders for different people and so not subject to duty

    • CanSerMan on 19/04/2023 - 09:47
      -1

      Goods over 1000 will incur GST as well I believe so that's another 15% on top.

      • Nil Einne on 19/04/2023 - 09:56

        No you already pay GST. And no duties for hard disk. So it's only the BESL + IETF https://www.customs.govt.nz/personal/duty-and-gst/faqs/ and perhaps any agent clearance fees that you will have to pay. I think with Amazon you can clear it yourself so you should be able to avoid clearance fees but I'm not sure if that.

        • CanSerMan on 19/04/2023 - 10:03

          Oh cool good to know thanks

    • Nil Einne on 19/04/2023 - 09:58

      Only other thing is if you need to pay a fee to someone to clear the parcel. You can normally do this yourself, there are various guides here and on GeekZone on this. But some shippers or companies require you to use them to clear it and charge it for it.

      Edit: Commonly called brokerage fees or similar, as it's being cleared by a customs broker. I believe YouShop is one that forces you to use NZ Post for clearance.

    • Ketan on 19/04/2023 - 10:09

      You won't need to pay extra customs fees through Amazon, only extra thing you have to do is maybe get an importers code for orders over $1000.

      • Nil Einne on 19/04/2023 - 10:17

        For clarity you would need to pay the BESL+IETF if it's assessed by customs. This is something charged by the NZ government to cover their costs (i.e. it's not a tax per se), so it's not something Amazon can do anything about. I believe that the BESL is to cover all shipments, but for efficiency reasons is only charged when a customs assessment is done. So technically when an item is under $1000 we're being subsided by everyone paying the BESL.

  • Wakrak on 19/04/2023 - 09:36

    Updated description highlighting the fact that this might be a price error.

  • Sivuka on 19/04/2023 - 10:03

    Thanks OP you're a legend as always, unfortunately, I was too late for the 8TB but could get 12TB just now, my NV Shield Plex Server won't run out of space for quite some time now.

  • fatboyj on 19/04/2023 - 10:11

  • Alan6984 on 19/04/2023 - 12:24

    Ordered two of the 12TB drives.

    At that price, I'm happy to have two mirrored drives, so even if one fails, (hopefully) no data loss.

    • kingjj on 19/04/2023 - 12:55

      Just picked up two 12TB's as well. Awesome price per TB for a solid product.

      Once all was tallied up it was 10 bucks cheaper to buy two from Amazon than to buy one from PBTech.

      Well spotted as always @Wakrak
