Rebuilding a couple vdevs in my ZFS storage. At a minimum I need 8TB drives, but hoping for larger, and prefer SAS over SATA, but either will do.

I want drives with under 40k poweron hours. CMR drives only, not going to mess with SMR here.

For 8TB I'm willing to spend ~$120 shipped per drive. For 12TB I'd do ~$175 per drive. For 16TB I'll do $200 per drive. If you have drives larger than that, shoot me a DM and we can chat. Prices are based on what I've seen happen recently on reddit for drives like that, I'm just not active enough on r/hardwareswap to catch sales now a days. If you have drives with far lower hours and positive _long_ SMART results I'm willing to spend a good bit more.

I need at least 6 drives, but if you have 12 to 14, that's ideal as that lets me do two vdevs and have up to two spares.
