Sounds like a good idea.
I would first suggest you ensure you have an up to date backup.
You need 4.2.16 or later to use 3TB drives (update before adding 3TB drives). Note you can't go direct from firmware newer than 4.2.9 but older than 4.2.16 to 4.2.19 you have to update to 4.2.16 first. This is fixed in 4.2.20. 4.2.20-T40 (http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=57193) is pretty stable and I'd probably go with that.
