My anecdotal, non-scientific personal experience is that Seagate should be avoided, and the backblaze reports seem to continue to support that.

Notes and Observations
The failure rates of all of the larger drives (8, 10, and 12 TB) are very good: 1.21% AFR (Annualized Failure Rate) or less. In particular, the Seagate 10TB drives, which have been in operation for over 1 year now, are performing very nicely with a failure rate of 0.48%.
