It has Amazon as well as many other stores, and several other filtering options. It supports hard drives, SSDs, and other computer parts (everything that you need to build a computer). It also has a compatibility checker if you give it a complete parts list. It also works in several countries.

> 500 Internal Server Error

> The operation is insecure.

As a backend engineer, I am beyond tired of frontend engineers taking what is a Javascript programming error ("[Uncaught DOMException:] The operation is insecure" is a JS exception. It is most commonly raised when a page wants access to APIs without permission to such) and blaming it on the backend ("500 Internal Server Error" — except this is just a lie. No 500s occurred).

How is it different from https://diskprices.com/ ?

The best price/TB in Amazon US are mostly NAS drives. For Amazon UK they are mostly external drives.

Man even spinning rust has inflated. In mid 2024 I got a 8TB WD Blue for $115 and now the cheapest 8TB I see on PcPartPicker is $160... isn't that like 30% increase in a year or so? :/

We didn't know how good we had it.

The prices don't seem accurate on the ones I checked. Maybe they were a few months ago, but there's been a lot of stock shortages, especially for larger HDDs, and it's been driving up prices.

I filtered for ssd only, minimum 2tb, top 5 prices are wrong or the product is not available on Amazon US

At least for France prices are wildly innacurate. The actual ones are 150 to 200% the price on the table.

I checked 6 to 8 TB HDDs.

Note, this is painfully out of date, I no longer maintain it.

How did you get the data? I went the scraping route after having difficulty qualifying for access to Amazons API as I didn't generate enough purchases via the affiliate links. Would be interested in hearing how you approached this.

Anything like this for the Indian market as well? I tried diskprices,terabytedeals & pricepergig (currently the only 3 websites mentioned right now in comments/main post show hn itself) and none of them support Indian services.

If someone does support Indian markets, I have a minor suggestion to include both Amazon and flipkart.

I would honestly really appreciate a quick website I can point out to in my local community so vektor if possible, can you please add it?

What are your thoughts on it?

looks like you've made considerable changes since comments; all prices I checked were accurate (while nothing I checked on diskprices was). this looks genuinely helpful as this is something I look into myself by manually looking around, and is clean/easy-to-use; bookmarked it. only thing I might like on top of this is to be able to filter by if renewed or not, though they seem to often have it in the product title.

UX bug:

I don't use dark mode. Every time I open this site, it firstly shows in dark mode and then switches to light mode after 0.x seconds.

I haven't needed to buy a spinning hard drive in about 5 years. I have no idea how to choose one any more. There are so many variations. Red, Purple, Blue, Gaming, Enterprise, Business.

I just want to store some files.

A graph could be fun. Also sources other than Amazon, especially https://serverpartdeals.com/.

Feedback:

Interesting. Glad there was a drop down to pick a bunch of different sources. I was expecting it to be US central but was happy when I saw I could search for amazon.co.uk

An ability to search for NAS drives, even if it's just a substring search within the product name, would be great.

Also a search on drive speed. I'm not interested in 5400rpm drives, only 7200rpm+.

(I'm looking for a bunch of 7200rpm drives that are NAS rated, so I'm not interested in generic consumer grade 5400rpm drives right now.)

Great job! Could someone explain what's SAS and what's the difference between SAS and HDD? I know I can google it but I value people experience.

Not to be yet another critical voice, but where are your prices actually coming from? I'm in the US, and I just chose the top three "Price/TB" items and none of the prices on your site agree with the actual item pages on Amazon.

  - Toshiba X300 16TB Performance & Gaming 3.5-Inch Internal Hard Drive
  - https://terabytedeals.com/us: $229.95

These other items and prices only appear if you choose the "See All Buying Options" button or the "Other sellers on Amazon" menu. Then wait for the "Didn't find what you were looking for? Consider these alternative items" section to load.

  - For B0CYQXNCVZ (16TB), Amazon offers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NTDWMSQ (6TB) which *IS* listed as $229.95.

https://diskprices.com/ has always served me well

This is great! Any plans of adding tape ?

Every price i checked on Amazon.de was wrong on your website, this is totally useless! Often the real price is like 300% higher

If only you had known about diskprices.com you could've saved yourself the trouble.
