    To directly answer your question, no disabling SMBv1 will not have any impact on your SharePoint farm.

    disabling or removing SMBv1 might cause some compatibility issues with old computers or software, SMBv1 has significant security vulnerabilities and we strongly encourage you not to use it, check below article for more Info:
