Hardware For Sale/Trade

FS: Synology DS212+, 3x WDC WD2003FYYS (2TB), 4x WD4000F9YZ (4 TB) in NL (beware: 1.2 MB image attachments)

Hello everyone!

I recently upgraded from my trusted DS212+ to a DS216+II along with an expansion in storage space so I'm left with the old NAS and seven hard disk drives. Six of these have been used (3 each of 2 TB and 4 TB) and one (4 TB) is still factory sealed. The hardware was kept very well and is in good working (and optical, in the case of the NAS) condition. All information available to me is given here below.

All six used drives were zeroed fully with dd. These are enterprise class drives, WD RE4s in the case of the 2 TB models and WD Ses in the case of the 4 TB models. Do note, however, that all drives, including the factory-sealed one, are out of warranty as of the time of sale.

The NAS with two of the 4 TB drives inside was upgraded to the latest and greatest DSM version and factory reset. This model still receives regular updates from Synology.
