I've got three Seagate Barracuda 3000GB 3.5" SATA disk drives I'm looking to get rid of since I changed over to 8TB units. All three have been securely wiped and tested to ensure there are no bad sectors. I'd like £20 for each.
The exact model is ST3000DM001
PM me if interested.
Thanks
Robert
Are these back up drives that can be plugged into a usb socket on the computer?
Two have gone, one left.
Carole, they are internal drives.
Oh, OK, was looking for a back up drive.

NO! That leaves the drive's electronics exposed - easily short circuited and destroyed.
Try an enclosed caddy instead:
