I’m creating my first Plex server and have not purchased any drive larger than 2 TB before. Right now, Western Digital is having a deal where two 12 TB drives are going for $200 each (i.e., ~$16.7/terabyte).

Is $15-17 good enough to buy four and take advantage of the limited-time offer or is that “Just buy a couple” territory?

How much do you usually spend new per terabyte? Used?
