An Introduction to ZFS

Use Backblaze's hard drive stats as a guide: https://www.backblaze.com/b2/hard-drive-test-data.html

I've yet to experience a failure of HGST drives, even after 10 years of operation in an LVM or ZFS array.

HGST remains my preference for "enterprise-y" stuff on home and small business setups. Slightly pricier but if you value your time it pays for itself easily.

I buy used 4TB HGST drives on eBay. They’ve all been solid and inexpensive, some with more wear and tear than the others.
