Any reason these renewed drives from Amazon would be a bad choice? Planning on getting 4 of them to build a NAS and maybe hosting jellyfin.

But you can use that in your favor though. If you run large raid arrays with decent amounts of redundancy, and the right software stack the loss of any one or even two drives really doesn’t impact the entire system.
