4TB drives coming out....
will these be compatible with my NVX Pioneer edition? I'm almost out of space on my 4 x 2TB drives... and going to 3TB drives really isn't worth it.... anyone know? Thx!
Assuming single redundancy...
Inserting the first 3 TB drive you will see no increase.
Inserting the second 3 TB, you will see an increase up to about 6.37 TiB (~7 TB)
Replacing all 4 will bring you to about 8.18 TiB (~9 TB).
Often inserting larger drives is more cost effective.
For instance, at the moment a ST3000VN000 can be purchased in the US for about $130, and ST4000VN000 for about $170.
Adding 2 ST4000VN000 to your current array would cost $340. You need 3 ST3000VN000 to get the same volume increase - which would cost $390.
