Since I'm seeing several times people having problems with storage or servers using off-the-shelf disks, I think these links could be useful in choosing which disks to use:

Backblaze is a online backup company that designs its own storage pods, and made some large and accurate studies on their disks. Having more than 27.000 disks, I think the informations coming out from those posts can be interesting.
Note: we at Veeam have no relationship with Backblaze or any of the disk vendors quoted in those articles, nor we do not promote any brand . But I personally thought it would have been useful to advise you all about those studies.
