If you have a system to back up your files, phone, iPad, etc., at home, then you could use a drive like this.
I have a Synology Network Attacked Storage device that allows one to add drives or replace drives when one goes bad. Since it runs all day and all night, you want drives that are built to run 24/7/365 and not ones that are meant for a PC that gets shut down when you aren't using it.
Ironwolf series is highly rated.

Lots of storage for great price. Never buy a used hard-drive. Buy it new and enjoy the security of a warranty

Great Drive for my NAS. I highly recommend Ironwolf drives over WD NAS drives because there is no games played with these over WD SMR Drives. These are CMR Drives and work great in my QNAP. Only con if you want to call this a con is they are a lot louder then some drives because they are 7200 rpm, but they are faster as well.

I have been using three 8TB in my home server running in RAID 5. I have had them running 24/7 for two years and no issues so far. I highly recommend Ironwolf NAS drives!

I am using this drive in my home NAS. This has been running 24/7 since purchase without any issue. Read an write speeds have been fine with the 7200 rpm.
Although there is a high level of sound on the initial spin up, the drive stays quiet and cool from that point on.
This is my 3rd IRONWOLF NAS drive and i will continue to rely on them for all of my future NAS drives

Good quiet drives for my NAS system
I switched mfg's from WD since ransomware attacks WD just went through. Some of the product has been compromised and their not offering any additional clarification other than what you read in the news. Seagate has been making very dependable drives and Ill be replacing my others as needed.

I have 6 Ironwolf drives loaded in a QNAP TVS-x72XT. I have had them for over 86 days continuous. I have added over 10 TB in a raid 6. The health status is good on all drives, disk access good, disk I/O is good, smart information displays correctly, and daily/weekly check have all completed in good status.
As for noise issues - I don't see it as an issue. Some times you might hear what sounds like a water drop hitting a sink. The noise levels a definitely in the good level for in the office or on desk top. In my opinion.

Decent sale (2021), high quality pro-sumer NAS drives. On the quieter side of 7200rpm drives.

It’s working well so far. However, it’s a bit noisy and might require relocating the NAS out of the living room. I’m hopeful that this drive will surpass the previous Western Digital drive that lasted for five years.

I’ve been buying Iron Wolf drives fir yeas for my slow storage. They work well, and I know my data is safe because of the free data recovery plan that comes with them. I wouldn’t use anything else in my NAS.

After about a month, this drive is working well as an internal NAS drive.

Bought it with a small discount. A good drive with a complimentary data recovery for it's price. 4 stars because drive is louder comparing to some other competitors. Not recommended for living room.
Ahh.. Good enough for the job will probably be rep

This 8 terabyte Seagate Nas Drive fits well in the Seagate Raid system. However, I don't have the time to get the help to possibly. create multiple volumes on the Seagate Raid then. it's slow..
The odd thing about it is the four terabyte nas drives. from Seagate seemed to have a better aspect. to them for lasting longer and running a little bit faster.
Seagate does temp drop the ball a little bit every now and then like there three terabyte and 1.5 terabyte drives. I will not be upgrading. 232 gigabyte raid system. for media service. Obviously the smaller c. Seagate hard drives are still improvement over the larger ones in the NASA environment.
Now the question lies. who will be given their business? of being a leader in the raid systems or will raid vanish completely with these new 16 to 30 terabyte heat or gas backed storage systems?
So far, no failures just. slow downs near hits of failing. but then again, I'm using an eight terabyte As a 4 terabyte system. doesn't make sense for me to upgrade my. Seagate raid, which has lost support for its OS as well as its box..
I would recommend talking to people who have other types of raid systems to see if. plugging in Seagate nasses actually have. an advantage.
