All drives are a gamble, 2 is 1, but at refurb prices you can get 2 for the price of one new one.

I'm brand agnostic, but Seagate as a brand has far greater rate of failure vs WD.

Your first question answers the second two.

I bought just bought 5x12 TB refurb drives from goHardDrive. They had a 3 year warranty. goHardDrive also has drives with a 5 year warranty. We just need to clarity for what the warranty is for this particular listing.

As many will tell you, if your data is important then you need to have backups. Ideally 2 backups, which means 3 copies of your data in total. And ideally have one of them offsite. These basics help prevent from more than drive failure. They protect from things like disasters (fire, flood, etc), ransomware, and human error.

Purchasing refurb drives can make it much more viable to purchase more drives. More drives used strategically greatly reduces your chances of losing data.
Be nice to have a friend with similar nas where you both archive equal amounts of data and you both have the offsite backups at each others' place

I for one love these refurb drives from GOHARDDRIVE on newegg. I bought 14 of them and had health checks all work out and exchanged the one that didn't. Easy peasy. And each drive had only 4yr avg power up time on them with 50ish power cycles. Very happy with that statistic as I know exactly how they were all run. THese old HGST helium drives are what I use now -- relabeled WD GOLD when I buy new but I can't be happier with these as now they match the age of my other "new" drives -- lol. Anyhow, using stablebit software, it's easy to keep them up and duplicating for my needs. again, couldn't be happier.
How do you go about doing health checks of a drive? Are there any recommended free software out there that is reliable?

So tempted because my 8TB Plex NAS is at capacity. Still really struggling with buying refurbished drives since my NAS is only 2 bay.

Is old computer loud not server loud.

So depends on your install and preference.

I like knowing when it's on and working.

Warranty? Do refurb HDDs last? Is it a gamble?
It's a gamble. The only refurbishment these sellers have done is to erase the data. They are not replacing the motor bearings, the actuators, or refilling the helium. You're buying a 5+ years old USED hard drives that are more than half way through their typical life.

A "NAS" doesn't need to be anything formal. It's simply a storage service connected to a network you can reach. My plan is to take a Raspberry Pi and plug in an external hard drive. I'll configure the Pi to automatically VPN into my network on boot. From there, a scheduled task would take care of things. A 1 GiB Pi 4 is probably plenty for this. Maybe go to 2 or 4 GiB if I want to put a full Desktop/GUI OS on it.

With something like this, all you need is a friend or family member that doesn't mind you plugging into their router.

using stablebit software (30 day trial) or tons of free ones that check the surface & smart data.

I got in on the goHardDrive 14 TB deal, and I use them in a home environment. My NAS with 2 of them is audible from a couple of meters away, but I wouldn't consider it loud by any stretch of the imagination. If your NAS is in a closet with the door closed, it'd be virtually imperceptible.

Wait a minute now! These weren't recent purchases, right? Because my recent purchases from goHardDrive yielded disks with some 4 years but >1500 load cycles. These disks were probably cycled daily. I mean, they work just fine and I don't mind using the warranty if needed... just offering another data point to help calibrate expectations.

My current home server is located side by side where I watch TV, and it's virtually silent, so I don't think this type of HDD will work for me.

This type of HDD might not be able to re-create your current experience, but whether it would work for you is an entirely different question. Consider this: If you watched TV in a living room where there are other noises, it's possible that ​you wouldn't mind the episodic purring of your home server. And if you cared enough to create a home theater to eliminate distractions, why, you'd probably be able to hide your HTPC where it wouldn't be heard. Or just use solid state storage in a fanless system to sidestep the issue altogether.
