Do these use SMR, or are they otherwise "normal"?

Normal, since the 8TB models are the only ones, that I know of, shipping with SMR tech. These are the six platter drives, their answer to WD's helium filled drives.

Nice, that's what I suspected, but I wanted to be sure.

So are these 7200 RPM drives for sure then?

Mine is the ST6000DX000. 6TB, six platters, 128MB cache, and 7200 RPM.
