You can get new WD drives for ~18usd/Tb. https://www.westerndigital.com/products/internal-drives/wd-red-sata-hdd?sku=WD60EFAX
I wouldn't mess with older drives unless they were less than half the price. In that case set them up raid 1 and send it.
$18/TB is a crazy high price. I've bought most of all my WD drives new for <$15/TB by waiting for sales on Easystore/Element drives
He said enterprise drive. Not junk external drive with less cache
Considering this guy is looking to slap some drives into his personal computer in order to store some movies, who gives a shit if they're enterprise drives or not? I have numerous 6 year old 'junk' drives in my server that haven't given me a single issue the entire time powered on 24/7. It's not like he's looking for drives to put in a Facebook datacenter.
