I can't wait for datacenters to decommission these so I can actually afford an array of them on the second-hand market.

Exactly, my nas is currently made up of decommissioned 18tb exos. Great deal and I can usually still get them rma’d the handful of times they fail

Nice, where do you get yours?

also curious, buying new is getting too pricey for me
