Recording Upgrade?

Hello people. So I make videos at 1080p 60fps now. And as you can imagine it takes up a lot of space. I currently record to a 1tb WD Blue drive. And the speeds seem to be perfectly fine when editing too. But I'm running out of room and want to upgrade to about 4-6TB.

Originally I was thinking of getting two WD Green 2-3TB drives in raid for faster operation. But I'm wondering, if I'm going to be recording for like 6 hours at a time now, constantly, than should I use WD Red drives instead? Aren't those rated for content operation? That way I can get the Red Pros for 7200rpm. The thing is they are more expensive.

What do you think is the best option? I'm open to any other options or suggestions as well. (Hardcore WD fan though)

Thank you for any help!
