F2FS - I'd currently rather use this, if I had to use a Zoned device (Assuming it's under 16TB in size). https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man8/mkfs.

The f2fs section says "Zoned block device support was added to f2fs with kernel 4.10. Since f2fs uses a metadata block on-disk format with fixed block location, only zoned block devices which include conventional zones can be supported. Zoned devices composed entirely of sequential zones cannot be used with f2fs as a standalone device and require a multi-device setup to place metadata blocks on a randomly writable storage."
