Let’s say i made 10 snapshots on top of the base.

Now can i delete snap no. 5? Will the snaps after 5 will be affected?

Solved

Yes, one can delete consecutive snapshots. The data won’t be deleted unless all snaps ( reference points ) get deleted.

Note: If you delete the original file and delete all the snapshots made when the file is still there, the file will get deleted permanently.

    Yes, you can delete any snapshot at any time without risking data in others. Any unique data from the deleted snapshot will be discarded, any data still referenced by remaining snapshots will be kept.
