Now I'm debating whether or not to add a 3.5" 7200rpm drive for P2P, probably not the best idea to seed and download on an NVME and waste the writes on it. Western Digital Black 3.5" 6TB is on sale on their website for $110 w/ 10% CB.
OOF, yeah. I was half expecting to get called out for trashing the TBW on this drive. I mean, it's pretty sh*tty. But as your example proves, it's really about use case.
I'm not sure though... depends on how much you're downloading really. Seeding = "infinite" drive life. So I guess it depends on how much you expect to DL. I think I've traditionally downloaded everything to HDD's. I wouldn't mind this drive for backups, but 800TBW doesn't inspire much confidence. I've been thinking about buying a ~2TB datacenter SSD. Something that you can do multiple DRIVE writes to per day, and will last you 5 years+.
I'd go with the HDD for downloads
