I compute annualized failure rates per model from Backblaze's raw Drive Stats. A few that stand out right now: Seagate Exos X18 16TB around 0.17%, Toshiba MG11 24TB around 0.42%, while some 16TB Toshiba MG08 sit above 1.4%. Full rankings and how it's computed are on the site. Curious what people here are actually running - and whether reliability or price/TB drives your buying more?
