Good disk for archival purposes, but shouldn't be used as a general purpose hard drive for many use cases. This drive uses SMR ("shingled" magnetic recording) that makes it unsuitable for sustained write loads. The drive can experience severe pauses (e.g. for upwards of 60 seconds) if the CMR zone fills up, making it fail during "resilvering", so should not be used for RAID. You shouldn't put these disks in e.g. a NAS box. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has chosen not to explicitly mention the disk uses SMR in their specifications.
