The thing is, where? We don't really have a choice, it's either WD(and sub) or Seagate(and sub) with horror stories on both end. I had a WD red fail 3 weeks after the warranty period, while also having an older WD red that outlived it, chugging along for 6 years now. Now I run a mixes pool of WD and Seagate because ultimately, I don't trust either of them.

Toshiba is actually pretty good in my book. I've yet to have a major failure in my NAS from Toshiba drives I procured over a few years ago.

The problem with Toshiba is that their enterprise drives have no warranty for non-enterprise customers in the EMEA region.
