WD says it is a CMR drive, and that they are separating the Red
designations to make it clear to consumers which are SMR and
which are CMR because people don't like buying SMR by accident,
which surprises WD for some reason.

According to [1] the newer WD Red drives are SMR, the CMR drives are now
the Red Pro series.
