Is that a tempting price to extract the drive?
Maybe, the closest I could find for manufacturer recertified was about $400, but it's an enterprise drive sooo it'll be more reliable than whatever consumer drive is in there

The biggest thing though is if it's SMR or not, if it is it's definitely not worth the ~70 bucks in savings, but I haven't been able to confirm it yet
