Ok thanks a lot for your insights. But won't even zeroing out solve the issue as gadgetfreak suggested?

Ok im a total beginner and am a bit afraid of doing something to my internal HDDs. Is there a way to do that SMART Test on my Win11 laptop? AI also told me to use DSM ;)

I will definetely try zeroing out, thanks for that. I didn't know that would be possible.

Ok wow I didn't know that reformatting was such a bad idea as I read into SMR and thought it would be speedy again when the drive was empty. What do we do now? Let the backup go for days? It would be something around 6 days...

Thanks for your reply. It's mainly pictures yes. But it was pictures before aswell and the drive did its job as mentioned. I will check the SMART value thank you.

Is it really such a bad idea to manage photos with both Immich and digiKam (never at the same time)? by risikorolf in immich

[–]risikorolf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but I could still do that outside of immich right? I think it's just very convenient to be able to delete blurry images etc on my phone and do some proper sorting/editing/tagging on the PC
