Cedar vs cypress vs Accoya vs just going hardwood: which siding material for a 30-year hold?

Planning to be in this house 30+ years (forever home in the Philly suburbs). Want wood siding but I don't want to be on a maintenance treadmill. What's the actual 30-year total cost of ownership for these options? House is 2,400 sf of siding, east/south exposure dominant. I can spend up to if it means I'm not repainting every 5 years. What would you pick if you were installing once for 30 years?
