ReadyNAS NV+ and 2TB disks?
Hi there I'm wondering whether I can really expand my ReadyNAS NV+ now with 2TB disks. At the time where I bought it (some years ago) the highest supported disk size was 750GB. I do have two of them....

Hello,
I intend to buy an NV+ and 4 x 2 TB drives, for home use (back-up, audio/video server,..) with a variety of Mac and PC (Win XP) computers.
Looking at the HCL and considering cost, the drive options are down to:
- Western Digital WD20EARS
- Seagate Barracuda LP
I read about early issues with the EARS, which seem to be sorted out now (but is there an issue with respect to Win XP?).
Any advice offered about the above choice?
TIA,
Pier
PS Unfortunately the HCL does not include any Samsung drive, with which I had good experience (as PC drives)
