ReadyNAS Duo and odd drives
In a ReadyNAS Duo, do the two drives have to be identical? (I want to run with mirrored drives) I currently have one of these: Seagate 2TB Barracuda LP 3.5" Hard Drive - SATAII 5900rpm 32MB Cac...
One would assume so, but, I have twice had brand new drives have the same problems. The first time was with two Samsung 500GB drives I attempted to add to exapand a volume of 2x500GB Seagate drives. The NV+ accepted the first and rejected the second as being too small. The second time was with the two 1TB Seagates of the same model. Since I did not format the drives with a desktop, I do not know if there were bad sectors, but one would think so.
