Please note the HHD technology. Please only use CMR HHDs in servers.

No, SMR HDDs are not made for continuous operation.

Usually fine for media only like Jellyfin, since you write every now and then new content, then only read from it for longer periods of time.
I probably wouldn’t go for a SMR drive anyways just because drives can last a long while and who knows what i’ll want to do with it in the future.
