I started building a RAID before the prices of hard drives popped off, so I got the enclosure and one drive, I was going to buy the other drives when I had some spare cash. Now a single 8tb HDD (not even solid state!) is $450 CAD and there's no way I can spend $1350 to finish this thing so it's just sitting there.
I had the exact same plan, luckily I had a couple of other 1TB drives lying around I've made a RAID from. but i took a screenshot of the drives I wanted when I bought my first 4TB drive, and then I looked at them again 11 months later...
Lower price is from 06/25 and the other is 05/26.
