I have seen alot of 18TB externals at one time where they put Ironwolf. Those drives are worse and slower but are still CMR.
The 20TB on FP slick deals at best buy was 240 after tax and was a SMR crap drive. I am selling mine or returning it idk
People will almost always be better off with a CMR as a generality, but the negative attributes of SMR can be essentially invisible to people that write once, read many if I understand correctly.
HAMR, don't understand that well enough yet, anyone have a concise executive summery between the various brand iterations of heat assisted writing, and what the Pros/Cons are VS CMR or how it similar/different with SMR?
Those Barracudas seem to have the "Class 1 consumer laser product" info on the label which I've only seen come on the IronWolf drives that use HAMR technology.
Thanks for the reply and info!
they are x24 exos
HAMR is like 30TB+ from what i read online
also some of these drives could be returns RMA from Seagate where the label was never removed and firmware erased
My drive had a piece of tape and Taiwanese paper saying QC checked and the drive had like 16 hours on it when i checked it. I never seen this before in my life
If this is truly an EXOS drive, it's a great deal.
lol, hope you have a few weeks to kill while you watch it lumber along.

I haven't seen it get close to 5 Gbps, but I've seen sustained writes at 225-250 MB/s.

And now that I notice, if you go to the site and go to checkout with 3 in the cart, it will show 3 x $279.99, but the total actually adds up differently with two being $329.99.
Either website error or price deception.
