I just bought an Orico DS500-C3 for my home setup, with the purpose of accommodating my backup files and my Steam games. I wonder which HDDs should I buy, and whether it makes any difference.

Seagate Barracuda, Exos, Skyhawk, Ironwolf?

WD Gold, Red, Purple, Blue?

Does it really matter considering the 5 GB/s speed of the DAS system? Should I just get the cheaper ones? Or does it make a difference?

Thanks for the help.
