Isn't that a problem of ZFS? I don't mind SMR HDD if it was labeled as such and warn about it's weird performance traits.

- ubercow13 6y agoThis whole issue was originally that Western Digital was trying to hide which HDDs were SMR. ZFS can't be changed to have special behaviour for SMR drives if the vendors try to hide the fact they are SMR, even from software. It wouldn't be able to identify them.
