Power disable feature on readynas 422
Does ReadyNAS 422 support HGST Ultrastar He10 HUH721010ALE604 (0F27454) with Power Disable feature?

Hi ggmasluka
Welcome to the Community!
This feature became a standard on SATA III rev 3.3, This type of drives are not tested yet for compatibility with the ReadyNAS systems and even HGST does not recommend it on untested Chassis.
This is due to the drive's possibility to not spin up when 3.3v power is being provided in Pin3. It is recommended to use HDDs without this feature for now to avoid any issues.
Here is a link to an article for HGST Power Disable feature and another post that may add up to this reply.
Hope this helps!
Regards
