Please note the HDD technology. Please only use CMR HDDs in servers.
HDD* (hard disk drive)
Oh, sorry.
Isnt that only really necessary if using RAID?
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.
(If you use RAID, this advice doesn't matter, but if you don't run raid like me and only use it for media like in the example, I'd imagine it'd be fine)
