Setting up my NAS for the first time with two 12TB drives, one WD Red Plus and one Seagate Ironwolf.

Both are matching specs (12TB, 7200 RPM, 256MB Cache) and badblocks been running for the past 5 days with both running at the same time in tmux.

However, the Seagate has finished and the WD has just started writing the last pass (so, Seagate finished 25% more quickly). Both have no errors.

Just curious what the experts here think about that. A fine thing so long as no errors, or cause for concern? Even if not concerning from a reliability standpoint, is it from a general quality pov?
