Ordering a ReadyNAS with any disk EXCEPT Western Digital?
I would like to replace my current ReadyNAS which contains 4 disks with a more recent model. Is there any way I can specify the disks as ANY BRAND except Western Digital? TIA

Yes.

From a practical point of view, people in the forum have their own favorite manufacturers, which is usually a result of their own experiences. I generally won't buy Seagates, and hearing good experiences from other users isn't likely to change that (at least not quickly). TravisBanger obviously feels similarly about Western Digital - so we can respectfully disagree.
