I won that lottery with 3x 26TB Exos shipped. I decided to try and get two more but they ended up being HAMR (returned). Then I managed to find two more earlier manufacturing dates in store stock at a somewhat-far Best Buy that I was driving past anyway.

It felt like an unnecessary purchase at the time (I'm still waiting to CAD a CPU cooler mounting solution for the build in a new case that has room for the drives). But it seems like that deal is going to be the high water mark for a few years, at least.
