Server HDD selction
I'm looking for 16TB HDDs. They'll be for fairly light usage. Immich will be the heaviest thing running on it.
New? Used? Certified? Like this?

I bought 5x 16T recertified WD from SPD. Running in RAIDz2 (2-disk redundancy) config since April. I've yet to have an issue. They have 3 years manufacturer warranty so it's not even a huge deal if some die in a while. I paid USD $160 per drive.
What do you use for raid?
ZFS
To add to that. With ZFS raid everything is done with software so their is no hardware lockin.
