I think the 1TB/day was additional data transferred, not total.
Yup, you're right, they've been hit by overwhelming 8 TB/day. The point (still true) is that that amount of data was hadled by whole pod with cumulative data throughput of at least 350 TB / day. And that, while not large enough to hold 8 TB data, any of those drives is capable of such daily average data rate, thus the difference in average datarate thrown at pods of different HDDs is not showing the difference in performance of those drives at all.
