3TB Compatibility List
Is there something like a 3TB compatibility list? regards chris

While perhaps not very important as all ReadyNAS now support both 512 and 4K sector drives, that statement might not be correct. It has already been reported that the first 3TB drive released by Seagate (supplied in a USB case) was in fact a 512 byte sector drive.
This might have been important for the NV+/Duo where a factory reset is required to enable 4K sector support (To be clear: x86 based NAS do not require a factory reset for 4K sector support) - but the lack of GPT support on those models means 3TB will not be supported anyway.
