  • If it is just backups and nothing else i would take the cheapest ones. And get more of them => more redundancy for the same money.

  • Purple is for video surveillance which is a specific type of workload. Go with red.

  • WD is optimised for Writes not reads, like video surveillance (@Willie), so red in that situation. Here is a LINK to WD rainbow
