Biggest drive on Duo still 2TB?
Even unsupported? I have an old Duo with 2x2TB HDs and was wondering if 3 or 4TBs would work. Was planning on using is as a backup to my RN202 NAS.

That's great advice. Thanks! I'll set it up as jbod and two 2TB volumes, and setup the backup jobs to back up to each individual volume/drive. I bought the Duo in 2011 and am not sure how much longer it has, but while it still works I figured it could backup my RN202 (or the important stuff anyway).
I started the transfer yesterday, and it looks like it will take a couple of DAYS to do 1.5TB using Rsync NAS to NAS. I might stop that and use my laptop to do the transfer instead to test out the faster speed of the RN202. That Duo was very reliable but boy is it sloooooowwww.... :)
