Newegg offers the WD Red 8TB NAS Internal Hard Drive for $156.99 shipped. Also at Amazon for $3 more but temporarily out of stock. Normally selling for $225, today’s offer beats our previous mention by $28 and is the lowest we’ve seen to date. This is only the second time we’ve seen it at this price and for comparison, this offer comes within $5 of the all-time low. You can also get the 6TB version for $140 at Amazon, though it won’t be in stock until early August. Western Digital’s Red series drives are made specifically for use in always-on systems like a home media server and more. So if you’ve just picked up a NAS, grabbing these drives to fill it is the way to go. I swear by WD Red drives, relying on them for most of my server’s storage pool. Rated 4.3/5 stars from over 4,800 customers.
Don’t forget to shop the rest of Prime Day’s storage deals, with SanDisk and Western Digital options starting at $10. Plus Synology’s 2-Bay NAS has hit a new all-time low of $119 alongside more deals from $5.
