I come across a lot of highly rated sellers on several market places for used or new products in Germany and Netherlands for example. They sell WD UltraStar/ Seagate Iron wolfs 4-20 TB capacities for literally half the price of a new lne..

Most of the sellers have 500-1000 5star reviews..proper businesses...VAT invoices..they also give 2-3yr warranty on these HDDs and clearly claim 0Hr/0TB on these drives...they say these are overstock from OEMs....

But I don't buy this reasoning...

So my question is.... what's the catch... perhaps you guys know.

Rejects from OEMs, datacenters, old HDD over written with are FW, leaking Helium seals?
