New WD Red 4TB Drives
I am almost at full capacity with 4 2TB Reds in my NetGear ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus, was planning to buy 3TB drives but just noticed WD has a 4TB Red that was just released. I know they aren't on the HCL...

The WD RED 4TB drives will probably work but if you encounter issues using drives outside the compatibility list you will probably be denied support.
Also be aware that you cannot expand your volume by more than 8TB over its life. So if your volume capacity was 1.8TB when you last factory default you cannot expand past 9.8TB.
So depending what disks were installed when you last did a factory reset you may need to backup your data and do a factory reset.
