Hello,
have a question about SMR drives which I had little knowledge on when buying my WD drives.
From reading I understand that the problem is mainly showing up on slow resilvering when replacing drives.
Question is if I replace a broken SMR drive with a CMR drive will the resilvering perform better then, or is it affected if any drive in the vdev is SMR?
*This is a home NAS with seldom accessed files so r/w performance is not a big deal in general.
