Decent brand external drive for Time Machine backups? - eviltoast

My TM drive has just failed and I’m looking for an alternative. There have been so many mergers and rebranding among drive manufacturers over the last few years and noise about how previously good brands have been taken over and now sell junk, I’m trying ti get a steer on which ones are still decent.

Looking for 4TB - to be honest, happy woth spinning rust as it is only for backup the speed of an SSD not really needed.

    Cheers. Couldn’t remember if Seagate had been sucked into WD.

    Agree about bad batches, but it’s the way Sandisk responded to the problem that’s been particularly unimpressive.
