Ok good to know. I'd prefer SPD since they seem to have a better reputation but the extra warranty combined with the cheaper price right now make GHD har dto pass up.

Do you know how SPD handles warranties from Canada?

Was this with server parts deals? It looks like GHD only does FedEx or ups which sucks for cross boarder with the brokerage fees

Hi All,

Im looking to reoutfit my aging server with some new, higher capacity drives. Current ones are 4TB WD Reds with around 69k hours! I've seen some good deals from both companies, especially GHD but was wondering what ppls experiences were like going across the boarder in regards to duty/tax and warranties.

Any fellow Canadians able to chime in?

Thank you
