Question Anyone know if Western Digital 8TB Ultrastar DC HC320 is CMR or not?

[BarkingGhostar]

I tried to do a cursory search on Google to find it out, but I wasn't confident in the tiny offering of results. The Western Digital 8TB Ultrastar DC HC320 (part HUS728T8TALE6L4). Most published lists of drives denoting the SMR/CMR status are out of date. I think this product is too new to be found on such a list.

Hi,

It's CMR. I use these exact drives. They perform great. Enterprise class.

Very best,
