I found this its the cheapest 10TB Exos drive on Newegg and looking to buy 4 of them. I will be putting them in my NAS that I use for my media library and pc backups. The price I’m posting this is $130, I’m also looking similar Exos drives that are $250 is there a difference? Should I shell up for the more expensive drives?

    Make that RAID Z2 my friend. One disk of redundancy is simply not enough. If a disk fails while resilvering, which can and does happen, then your entire array is lost.
