Hey guys, I have a good local deal on some WD40EZAZ's and I'm tempted to get a few for storing photos. No editing, no reorganizing, I'll just be adding new ones to the pile in batches from time to time. And also I will be scrubbing through them to find the one I need at the moment, but that's the extent of their use once they're on the drive. The average size per photo is around 15MB, tens of thousands of them like that. From my understanding it's a near perfect use case for SMR, but maybe I'm mistaken, so I came for advice.
