These worth it? (alien.top)

I've recently converted an old 2013 office PC into an Ubuntu file and media server and used the only hard drive I had laying aound, which was a ~13 year old, 500GB 2.5" laptop hdd.

I live in Australia where drives are really expensive. Is it worth getting a sas card and buying these drives for $20 each? Seller says they're from 2013-2014, all drives tested and working with not SMART issues found.

Thanks
