I currently have an M.2 SSD (512GB) and a 4TB HDD. Due to the high volume of content I need to process, I am looking to upgrade to an 8TB HDD, but I am not sure which brand/model would be best for video editing. Any suggestions?

More broadly, is it efficient to have OS/programmes on the SSD, footage on the HDD, and render to the SSD? Or should I use a different setup?
