Migrating to VectorChord - Storage Type

Hi all! I'm editing my
docker-compose.yml
docker-compose.yml
file to update my Immich components and I see there's a new settings preset option:
# Uncomment the DB_STORAGE_TYPE: 'HDD' var if your database isn't stored on SSDs
# DB_STORAGE_TYPE: 'HDD'
# Uncomment the DB_STORAGE_TYPE: 'HDD' var if your database isn't stored on SSDs
# DB_STORAGE_TYPE: 'HDD'

I'm running Immich on a Synology NAS, with a RAID 5 setup, containing 4 enterprise-grade HDDs.
So technically I'm running on HDDs, but they have vastly different performance characteristics than a "normal" HDD.

Should I still use this preset? What settings does it apply to the database?
Thanks in advance!
