The ServerPartDeals Hard Drive Hype - Recertified HDDs in 2025

Come take a ride with TechHeart this week as we figure out if buying Recertified Hard Drives is a good purchase. https://serverpartdeals.com is one of the bigger players in the Recertified hard drive space - so we gave them a go!!

I started by e-mailing their customer support address and quickly received a reply; they helped me choose an acceptable product for my needs - we settled on Seagate Exos Enterprise 18TB drives as they would be for a NAS.

The pricing was great at almost 1/2 price of new HDDs - $169/ea. Five drives came out to around $850 and I had them in my hands in 4 days! ... we're not letting ServerPartDeals off that easily, though - check out the video to see the RESULTS of full bad blocks testing and LONG S.M.A.R.T. tests - the results might surprise you!!
