ReadyNas 4200 V2 max HDD size?

For some reason, Netgear site doesn't have a lot of details. I know the V1 takes up to 2Tb drives, does the V4 handle 4Tb? Are they sata II or sata III?

    The 4200 v2 supports GPT drives (> 2 TB) in all slots. The HCL includes some 4 TB models.

    It doesn't matter if they are sata II or sata III.

    Do be sure to use enterprise disks. Desktop hard disks can't handle all the vibrations in a NAS like the 4200 v2.
