They go on to list 3 Seagate models that share one common factor: Sharply lower drive counts. Backblaze had a lot fewer of these drives.
All of their <5 failures are from low quantity drives.
I have confidence in the rest of their report - but not with the inference that those 3 Seagate models are more reliable.
