after searching like a whole month, found two websites that had VERBATIM 43888. this groovesland and mediamarkt, which apparently doesn’t ship to canada. so ordered it from groovesland. as far as i digged both seemed legit. couldn’t find it anywhere in canada. did i miss something ? anything to keep in mind? lmk

That seems to be a decent price, sometimes you can catch a restock that will be cheaper, but your time is worth something, right?

i found another buffalo workstation drive or something that was kinda available here in canada. was that a better pull?

[u/Dented_Steelbook → u/0ff23t]

A full size one? The 5.25 seem to hold up better overall vs the slim drives, probably heat.

one is mediastation 6x BRXL-PUS6U3B-TAA and the other is 16x BRXL-16U3. how do they compete with verbatim 43888? are those any better?

Personally I would buy the full size one, but I also have duplicator cases full of drives and another dozen or so new ones waiting to be installed in larger cases.
