This should be a reputable, reliable drive. You might find something cheaper from other brands (and vice versa), but I don't think you can go wrong with this unless you specifically need a certain level of sequential read/writes, iops, tbw, etc. Don't just go by what's on paper, go by what you need/don't need, and one that isn't known to cause problems.
This is a really really old drive, there are way better newer and faster models out there (i'm only talking of pci-e gen3) with much better speeds and better durability than this for $5 to $10 more on an everyday price. Sale prices on those will be cheaper/better. Save yourself the trouble.

Everyone has been brainwashed to eat these high price because xyz reasons. It's easier and cheaper to print ssd NAND memory than make a hard drive yet you don't see those staying stationary at 1-2TB for the past 3 years.
For friends sake people I bought this for $69 in 2019.

I'm looking for windows 11 install and data. Any recommendations - Is is better to partition a 1TB (50/50) for that or get 2 500gb ssd's?

Either way isn't a big deal, I'd say go with whatever makes sense to you.

(I recommend providing examples for your claims)
I guess one upside of buying from BH Photo Video is that if you bought their gift cards from the PayPal deal a while back, this is something you could use it on.

That should help your average joe too.
for internal expansion, you need a pcie gen 4 nvme ssd. recommended sequential read speed of >5,500 mb/s (although slower gen 4 drives have been known to work currently).

Should you pay $50-$100 for the fastest performing Pro drive for everyday usage ? No
Should you pad $10 extra for a non QLC drive - Yes IMHO
