Is it worth it to buy NAS specific HDDs vs Normal ones?
Is it worth it to buy NAS specific HDDs vs Normal ones?
I've been buying seagate ironwolf only drives for my NAS but I've been wondering if it's really worth it given that it's a small server sitting in a corner and these drives are getting more and more expensive. What are your thoughts? Do you only go with NAS drives or anything really does the trick assuming I have a good backup strategy?

I have iron wolf 3TB in my NAS. But seeing they only increased in price over the last months i reconsidered. I just bought Exos E 8TB because theyre quite a bit cheaper and should perform equally. I have to install them yet.
Exos are enterprise .. NAS drives....
Yes but theyre cheaper than ironwolf.
