Using Surveillance Hard Drives for Farming

Are surveillance hard drives ok for farming?
I mean if that is what we have available…

Are there any disadvantage of using it?

Use what you can find! Farming can be done from most any storage, some in the community have gotten pretty creative! You could probably farm from a usb stick.

Should be fine, they are designed for constant writing of video, so they are “write optimized” but other than that, they are just plain old spinny rust hard drives like any other…
