I assume the red OOS at the end of the Amazon link means out of stock? If so it shows in stock but it also shows $349.99.

OOS from seller Amazon.com
$349.99 currently from a third party Amazon seller

Still in stock at Newegg (sold by Newegg) at $289.99

That's X16, not a very series with good reputation. Actually, in the BackBlaze report(https://www.backblaze.com/blog/ba...or-2022/), Seagate X14 is one of the least reliable model. I would suggest going to WD HGST or try X20 as it is more recent model. Or even further, go with refurbished disk like server part deals(as low as $8.5/TB) and set up NAS RAID 1 or similar redundancy.

It's an enterprise drive designed for bigger rack servers. In other words, it's designed to take more beating than in a home NAS. It should do well in your Synology. Double-check with Synology for compatibility.

Respectfully disagree with your assessments, particularly (b) choosing refurb HDDs and (c) RAID 1.

I clicked the NewEgg link after seeing this SlickDeals post, and I see the NewEgg website currently shows the price as $309.99 and also it shows:

"LOWEST PRICE in 30 days"

I was confused how NewEgg could claim that since less than 30 days ago the price was allegedly $289.99, which is lower than $309.99.

I made sure by checking archives, and indeed the price was lower than $309.99:

Understood, but X16 is still not trustworthy. For home NAS, it is perfectly fine to use refurbished HDD for RAID 10 for both speed and redundancy and most importantly simple during recovery. RAID 5 or similar approach can be way too unreliable in recovery, which is a very error prone and long lasting process. I saw twice in my life corporate IT guys screw that up.
RAID 10 means: $8.5 * 2 = $17/TB, though cost a little more, so far so good.

YMMV, but experience dictates new HDD with poor brand rep > refurb HDD with great brand rep. This is where the cost / TB is irrelevant if you cannot rely on a single storage unit and have to have a second as a backup ( successful replication in failure scenarios is a bitch ).
Fault detection, rebuild time, and rebuild performance are all factors here.
( side note, of course R10. This doesn't change the terrible capabilities of the three factors mention above in SOHO / prosumer NAS products ).
