I have worked with these people for many years, as far back as the early
90s --
https://www.realitybytescomputers.com/
I get an email blast from them on a weekly basis and the last email showed
4 pcs of 2TB 3.5" drives, brand/model unknown. Expect them to be $40(or
less) each.
They may have larger capacities, not sure.
Worth an email/call/visit I think.
They are in Elmira.
