hi guys,

im looking for an 8tb external hdd. so i found that the cheapest available online is the TRANSCEND STOREJET 35T3 8TB which most sellers sell around 1k-1.1k at lelong.

however, not many of the 'famous' online sellers carry this model. they mostly have seagate and wd 8TB but cost much much more, around 1.5k.

all models have 3 years warranty. do you guys have any info why the Transcend is much cheaper? its internal drive most probably be from seagate or wd anyway, so why the big price difference eventhough they all carry same 3 years warranty?
