Today only, as part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is giving folks a chance to upgrade their at-home network attached storage setup with a notable deal on the WD Red Plus 8TB Internal SATA NAS Hard Drive at $159.99 shipped. This model carries a regular price at $210 via Best Buy and more like $240 at Newegg where it is on sale for $170 right now. This is at least $50 off the going rate and well under the best we have tracked on this model at Amazon this year. We are big fans of the WD Red NAS drives around here and have been for quite some time. They are among the best options out there for delivering some additional storage to your NAS setup and this one-day offer brings an extra 8TB to your rig at a notable price tag ($20 per TB).
