If you want to upgrade your NAS storage and are looking for some deals, you can consider the Toshiba 6TB N300 variant, which has fallen to its lowest-ever price of $143 (purchase link under the spec list below).
Since this is made for use in NAS (network-attached storage), which means it will be up and running frequently, the drive is based on CMR or Conventional Magnetic Recording technology. The N300 also goes up to 250MB/s in terms of speed, which means transfers should be fast enough.
While it is the 6TB drive that has been discounted to its lowest price today, you can also consider the 16TB model, which continues to be at its lowest price. We are not sure if the drive will drop further or go back up in the near future. So, in case you need a higher storage capacity, you can certainly go for it since it is already at its lowest price.
