Which are best for shucking?
WD Mybook 8TB for £119.99 (until midnight UK time on the 16th of July):
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LWVT81X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=B01LWVT81X&linkCode=as2&tag=amoves-21&linkId=109e41ed89969139d870a312cd99835b
We can finally feel like Americans for a day with these bargain prices. You need to sign up for Prime as well but if you don't have an active prime membership, you can also start a new Prime trial if you haven't used your 30-day trial in the last 365 days. I just checked and these are the lowest prices these 8TB hard drives have ever been sold for in the UK.
They also have the WD Elements Desktop 8TB on a Prime Day sale for £124:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07FNK6QMT/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=amoves-21&camp=1634&creative=6738&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B07FNK6QMT&linkId=7a13bc41e7e1867b91417ef49df553e1
From what I've read it's quite similar to the MyBook but doesn't offer backup, encryption and password protection by default. Both are good for schucking. The main advantage of the Elements Desktop 8TB seems to be the ease of adding another drive in its case later on if you decide to schuck it.
The Seagate Expansion 8TB is on sale for only £109 and I've heard only good things about it in comparison to their smaller drives which seem to be problematic. I went with the MyBook 8TB myself.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07DQBFQ2D/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=amoves-21&camp=1634&creative=6738&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B07DQBFQ2D&linkId=28f3f183cd50ec9d3adf5c102ece5daa
The only other good deal I found was the Western Digital My Passport 4TB Portable. Still debating whether to buy it as well or get another Mybook 8tb. It is currently on sale for only £75 which is the second lowest price ever for it in the UK:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LQQH86A/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=amoves-21&camp=1634&creative=6738&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B01LQQH86A&linkId=54e3c55ae8c90b3e6a3f373dfb0b7335
Currently £112 on amazon.co.uk which works out about the same.

I’m not sure because I’m on mobile currently but is that a referral/affiliate link?
Here’s a clean link anyways just in case: https://amazon.de/dp/B01LWVT81X
You can shuck that but it's not advisable (poor performance coz it's an SMR). If you're looking for an alternative, this is the one I use personally:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LWVT81X/
I've shucked 4 so far and they all came with white label WD80EZZX drives (helium 5400rpm drives).
The 8TB one is going for £120. These are very easy to shuck and have white-label WD Reds inside (WDC WD80EZAZ-11TDBA0). They do have the 3.3V issue though so you may need to tape one of the pins.
Just over £10 per TB is great!
​
The best price on Disk Prices is currently over £18, up from £15 from the last few weeks as prices go back to "normal" before the sales. If the codes would have worked for other drives the this non-SMR WD drive might have been better value.
I picked one of these up to shuck them, sadly I am unable to buy more right now as I have 8 x 3TB Reds to replace, and doing all of them all at once would cost a bit too much with an impending house move.
I note that the 8TB one here is also shuckable, but reports are that they would most likely be white drives. Are there any other external drives that have a good chance/are definitely WD Reds beyond the My Book Duo?

Looks like 139 is only for the used model, it's 157.90 for a new.
Get these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LWVT81X
Reduce from 190+£ to 153£ today.
Shucked two of these over the weekend and they are White label. I needed to do the tape pin for the 3.3V to make them work with my Corsair PSU.
It was 143.99 Euro on Monday here: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01LWVT81X
Bought only one to test the shipping, but I'm still hoping for $130 or less on amazon.com :)
Yeah that one should work. I have the newer model which is $10 more but the old one and new one are identical except for the casing I believe.

Also 8tb on amazon.co.uk for 112GBP, (131EUR) https://www.amazon.co.uk/WD-Book-Desktop-Hard-Drive/dp/B01LWVT81X/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=8tb&qid=1574418535&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&sr=8-3
8TB MyBooks are on sale for 113 GBP:

I just bought one of these this week, removed it from the enclosure and got a nice 8 TB HGST Helium drive.
Note that if you do go down this road, there's no way to tell what drive YOU would get and there is a chance it wouldn't work with your PSU out of the box, but that's a simple fix.

Today it costs 159€
https://www.amazon.de/WD-Book-Desktop-AES-Hardwareverschl%C3%BCsselung-WDBBGB0080HBK-EESN/dp/B01LWVT81X/
This would be an example of what they're talking about. Probably don't show up on pc part picker because they're intended to be external, but you can just take out the hard drive and plug it in as normal.
I've done it myself with a seagate external hard drive.
So far the 8TB Mybook from Amazon.co.uk is still the best price I've spotted. Around 200 euro. Don't forget to you need a UK to EU plug. I believe there's a white inside for those who care.

No, not at all. The non-SMR WD Elements 8TB only costs £10 more.

Hello, it appears you tried to put a link in a title, since most users cant click these I have placed it here for you
^I ^am ^a ^bot ^if ^you ^have ^any ^suggestions ^dm ^me
Yes. That is about 192 euros so its cheaper to get it on amazon.de for 185.
Back down to 169 https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01LWVT81X
Well ... Guess it's time to buy one to test the 8TB craze myself.
edit: price match via eBay https://www.ebay.de/itm/262877221604 (Seller MediaMarkt retail store)
Single drive can be had for £200. I did this and it's currently burning in with badblocks as I write this. It was a WD80EZZZX.

To clarify, the HDD posted does require power, the HDD he's using does not.

Jeffrey.
estou sempre de olho nos discos de 8TB, o melhor preço que apareceu foi a cerca de 130 euros, este, na amazon
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LWVT81X
Está agora a 132. recomendo comprares, não vai baixar muito mais. normalmente ronda os 160 euros

This has 2 8TB Reds inside, so £250 each.
Looks like your 8TB Red internals are £262 though normally:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/WD-WD80EFZX-Network-Attached-Storage/dp/B01BYLY4DM
This will have an 8TB WD Helium disk in it, probably a white label disk but honestly the only difference to the Red should be firmware:

WD 10TB Elements
220eu213 from amazon.deJust bought this 3 days ago also for 220., all of them came with EMAZ Drives. Need the enclosures for my other drives which are naked right now >.>
otherwise i would just have bought the WD MyBook's for 20 less.
WD MyBook 10TB 200€ From Amazon.de was not so long ago for 175. which is the lowest GB/eur ever?
But Mybooks has hardwareencryption.. which makes it impossible to read it on desktop if you are swapping around without formatting the drive..
Edit:
Amazon.de has a nice offer..

What about this one?
Hi OP, seeing as you've mentioned the Queen's quid, I assume you're in the UK (your username is a bit of a hint too!). Why not shuck the WD My Book 8TB that is available on Amazon for ~£220, you may get a helium filled drive akin to a Red but it'll have a white label and less warranty. Obviously if you can get Red Pros then they're fantastic but perhaps your needs are more about quantity than quality. https://www.amazon.co.uk/WD-Desktop-Drive-Backup-Software/dp/B01LWVT81X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485503230&sr=8-1&keywords=my+book+8tb
