Pros

Both work flawlessly. They have a great 5 year warranty and and 550tb workload per year. Comparatively speed is sport car fast.

Price

I bought one of these refurbished for only 48 and it only had 32000 power on hours

I was going to buy a 2 tb drive but found this 4 tb was only about 25 more

5 million hours so for 48 you definitely want one of these

This price was a steal so i bought 3 more and two of them only had around 8000 power on hours

Shipping

Installed quickly and is very quiet in my liquid cooled computer

Packaging/appearance

Packaging was sufficient and worked perfect from day 1

Competitiveness

Even refurbished they are more reliable than any red or green rated drive on the market

This drive has a 256mb cache is less expensive than the 128mb version
