Where to buy HDDs cheap?

#1
Hi Guys,

Thought I would reach out and see if anyone can help me with this pain. 

Recently have bought a Ugreen 4800+ and obviously need to fill it with drives. Issue is, the large HDDs are eye wateringly expensive whilst the mid sized ones seem too poor for £ per GB. 

Are there any places where you would recommend finding cheap(er) drives or even refurbed? 

Thanks

I was in a similar situation when setting up my NAS. I ended up buying a couple of old enterprise HGST drives off eBay.
