Best to go with an Enterprise class HD which I use for all my sound FX and other libraries. 5 yr warranty, but now they are too slow for ATMOS work. I use my internal HD for everything and I have 4TB of storage for project and some sound libraries that load super fast. 6000 mb/s vs some RAID LaCie TB 3 that are running pretty slow now even thought they have been reliable as heck. I always buy extra Segate Iron Wolf Drives and swap them out or use another Array for redundancy. The lower end Samsung stuff works well, but recently I have had great luck with the Samsung T7 Rugged line which are faster that the T7's for example and read/write I think around 1000mb/s. I have backups going all the time, so nothing lost even clones my internal Mac Studio Ultra daily. I still use the latest Alsoft Disk Warrior for directory checks occasionally once a week to make sure things don't go awry.WD is 5yr warranty.
