@Dao, As far as i can tell we can delete any snapshots and it will not have any impact on other snapshot.

You can use elasticsearch curator also to delete the snapshots.

Please refer the below link for curator config:

Please refer the below link which saying that we can keep those snapshots which we want and delete the rest.
