PM/SM863a are usually great disks and should be the default go-to option, they outperform even the more expensive PM1633 in our experience. (But that really doesn't matter if it's for the full OSD and not as dedicated WAL/journal)
We got a cluster with a few hundred SanDisk Ultra II (discontinued, i believe) that was built on a budget. Not the best disk but great value. They have been running since ~3 years now with very few failures and okayish overall performance. We also got a few clusters with a few hundred SanDisk Extreme Pro, but we are not yet sure about their long-time durability as they are only ~9 months old (average of ~1000 write IOPS on each disk over that time). Some of them report only 50-60% lifetime left. For NVMe, the Intel NVMe 750 is still a great disk Be carefuly to get these exact models. Seemingly similar disks might be just completely bad, for example, the Samsung PM961 is just unusable for Ceph in our experience.
