Western digital has their 4TB WD Red CMR drives with 128MB cache for $68.99, although currently backordered, it might be a good alternative to the WD Purple drives. Generally, the 2TB WD Purple drives are in this price range ($65 - $80). I've had good experience with the WD Red drives as well.

Oops wrong thread.

Edit: Might as well add something useful. My last few drive purchases have all been 2nd hand given the rise in hard disk prices for Chia mining.

Got a 6tb Seagate surveillance drive for £71 and just recently got a 6tb and 8tb seagate drives for £60 and £80 respectively. Being 2nd I put them under stress test for a couple of days and have been meaning to replace the current 2Tb in my BI PC with the 8tb. The 6tb is already installed in my home desktop PC as an archive drive.
