8TB Archive Drive question

A little while ago I was reading a review on a Samsung 8TB Archive drive and the review said that the write speeds were slow but the read speeds were alright. I was wondering if this kind of drive would be okay for storing ROMs/isos/etc to play off? It might take a while to copy all the data on to the drive but if the read speeds are okay, would I be correct in thinking that running games off it would run fine or am I overlooking something?

Oops, the drive I saw was a Seagate, not Samsung, I should have double checked before posting.  The computer site I shop from doesn't have a regular 8TB drive listed on there, just the Archive drive.  I guess I'd better wait and see if they end up listing a regular one to be safe.
