I was going through my stash of pensioned-off hard drives today and out of curiosity looked at the prices they are getting on eBay (not the asking prices but the completed-sale prices). E.g., $157.19 for a pre-owned Seagate 500GB ST3500320AS!! $50.50 for a circuit board for an ST500630AS (allegedly to allow recovery from a drive with a dead board) $99.99 (plus $57.75 shipping !!!!) for a pre-owned 5TB Seagate ST5000DM000 $145.99 (with free shipping) for an identical drive Why???
