Drives for spin cycles rather than uptime (zerobytes.monster)

I'm considering a backup NAS that starts up only once a week, runs its backups, does some maintenance / system updates, then shuts down again. Are enterprise drives still the best option for that? Or is there something that's more purpose-built / optimized for handling many spin cycles and longer offline times?
