Yep, got a Samsung evo 870 in there, still going strong for like a decade. The HGST spinner I have is also pretty longlived. Weren't they bought out by WD though? I feel like I remember hearing that the quality has declined severely.
Having said that, I do also have a WD .... black? In there that has also lasted. I will check out gold though, and the mx500
