Hi alisys!
ReadyNAS 2100 is already EOL and that might be the best reason why the list is not updated for this model.
If you are just replacing a disk with same capacity newer models shouldn't cause any problem. However, using drives that are not listed on HCL is not recommended/supported.

If you are planning to expand your volume there will be limitations on the expansion.
Hope this helps!
