Seagate is well known for quality issues. I usually have no more than one Seagate in a RAID and plan for it to fail first.

  My understanding is the IronWolf drives are really good.

    IronWolf is AFAIK the only non-helium non-SMR 8TB drive.

    IMO what's important isn't getting good drives, but avoiding simultaneous drive failure. I usually do this by building RAIDs out of a mix of brands and manufacture dates.
