Make super-sure that's not a barracuda drive (which would be SMR)... https://www.seagate.com/de/de/products/cmr-smr-list/

Looks like it falls into the EXOS-E category at the bottom, so probably OK (CMR).

The link to the "leaflet" on the the page you sent says it's an EXOS-E & CMR "Built on field-proven 10th-generation conventional magnetic recording (CMR) technology, the Exos 7E8 drive":

I'm using the same 8GB EXOS drives in my TrueNAS Scale, and they seem to be working okay.
