Been finding some good deals on 2.5 disks lately, but have never bought one before. Have a couple of 3.5 disks on the other hand in my Unraid server. Wondering how much it matters wether I get a 2.5 or not? What form factor do you prefer/usually go for?

    WD reds I believe are smr, wd red pros are cmr, or at least that was a thing for a while that WD did silently.

      Indeed, it’s worth explicitly checking every drive you buy if you are using it in a NAS.
