What drives do you all use for NAS? (alien.top)

With black Friday sales coming up, I'm hoping to start building a NAS for my home. I have the server and stuff, but wondering which drives to get for storage.

From everything I've looked at, seems like Seagate Ironwolf and WD Red seem to be highly recommended. I'm leaning towards the Ironwolf 8TB drives right now. These are retailing for $160+tax right now, which I feel is a pretty good price to get these

However, I'm wondering if any of you experienced folks have any other suggestions for me.

Thanks!

Still running a pair of HGST DeskStar NAS 7200 drives.

They’ve been solid. It’s a shame you can’t get them anymore.
