ReadyNAS 4200 and 6/8 TB HDD
Hello!
Who tryed 6 or 8 TB HDD (for example WD Raid edition) with old ReadyNAS 4200?
Does it work's?
This is the 12-bay rackmount unit, right?
Is this the v1 or the v2?
The v1 is limited to 2TB disks in bays 5-12. The v2 does not have this limitation.
Only enterprise disks should be used in the 4200.
Also there are expansion limits to be aware of.

All three devices are v1... I'm very sad...
I know this isn't going to solve your problems but there is a model on eBay right now that's only going for $2199.99 with free shipping that's normally $3500
I've contemplated buying it but I don't know if I could justify the price. If you've got three to sell though you could probably easily sell yours to buy that one.
