HGST is WesternDigital if anyone wondered :- ).

Backblaze stats are interesting from sole point of being the only public dat of this kind, but I would not make any decisions based on it.
Enterprise data storage is so far our there from home/office use that there are very little takeaways that would apply.

(But Seagate has been cumulatively the worst for years lol, so buy WD)
