Extremely cheap 8TB drives in Germany (Amazon mistake ?)

[digitalfixer]

I ordered 3 of these on 31:10:16 at £177.59.

 

Today Amazon delivered the drives at the advertised price.

 

Checking the serial numbers with Seagate just tells me that the warranty is good until 11:19.

 

Have a busy weekend ahead installing and preclearing.

[Edit] Over 30 hours per cycle. No errors so far.
