only storage ive had fail since the seagate 1tb hdd days were qlc flash drives.
ive been running hdd’s and ssd’s, mostly tlc, since 2013 in RAID arrays with Areca cards. Before that was all HDD since the PCI-X days. Currently have 8x 4TB 850 Evos, theyd be 8TB but only QLC available in that capacity.
I have never had a tlc drive die on me, only qlc and only recently.
i hear you on cheaper storage, but reliability and speed matter as well, primarily reliability in my case.
I’m fine with it, I want 16TB NVMe M2 cards at a reasonable price for my next TrueNAS build

is it true that there really are no 8tb tlc external ssd and they are all qlc? is that why I’ve never found one. I wanted an 8tb for ps4 games
thus far, commercially, no, for SATA at peast as far as i know.
