WD Red Pro and Plus are both very good drives.   They're CMR storage which is what you want.

 

Pro have a longer warranty and officially support larger drive pools.  

 

Either is a killer option.

I would suggest if you go with wd drives that you disable wdda on the nas then. WD marks their drives as warning and you will get notifications of a failing drive and to replace it after 3 years of power on hours even though there is nothing wrong with the drive.

That is their enhanced smart drive monitoring. You can still rely on smart though. 

Those might be fine I haven't used many toshiba hdds lately just ssds. And those have been hit or miss.

Those drives would be solid. Currently I am using the 8tb versions of those in mine for about a year now.
