I had a terrible experience through all my life with HDDs. Slow af, sector loss, corruption, OS corruption... I am traumatized. I got 8TB NvMe for less than $500... Since then I have not a single trouble (well except I n electric failure, BTRFS CoW tends to act weird and sometimes doesnt boot, you need manual intervention)
I agree that single HDDs are terrible, but once you raid multiple of them together, it becomes much better. And now with zfs even better still
Sounds like you may not be making enough sacrifices to The Omnisiah
