Entirely depends if you count HGST as Western Digital or not, because they by far dominate the back blaze reliability scoreboards. IronWolf don’t even come close and are extremely hit or miss depending on capacity.
Canada might have manufacturing, but it doesn’t have its own brands anymore because of the aforementioned reasons. Meaning the bulk of the profits are still sent out if the country.
