FWIW, not sure if they are available in 4TB sizes: but for my home server, I've been using the Helium-filled drives, originally from Hitachi, now using Seagates as well. No issues, but this is a terribly small sample size. What I like is that they have the heat and power consumption characteristics of 5400rpm drives, but are actually running at 7200rpm and the performance of such. They also seem to fall in the "enterprise" lineup, so have longer warranties and TLER. Last I bought some (a couple months ago), they were actually cheaper than their non-helium equivalents.
