Refurbished 16TB+ HDDs are around that price range.

If you want a new one its sadly twice as expensive.

Often has exorbitant shipping + tax to germany, unfortunately, and once you want recertified ones, so more than a month or so of warranty, it's more expensive.

Yup, I've had to really search for good offers in the past over here but there's still a couple of decent one's around.

For example:

16 TB @ 200€ with [probably] cheap shipping + you can add an extended warranty of up to 4 years for an additional 6€. No clue whether the extended warranty covers hard drive failure, though it seems like it should.
