ReadyNas NV+ Hitachi 3TB Drives.
I just purchased a ReadyNAS NV + 4 Bay, inserted 2 existing Hitachi 3TB Hard Drives (No Data on them) that I had in my old computer, powered everything on and now the Hard Drives read as 768Gb in size...

Thanks
That appears to most likely be the case. yoh-dah's Twitter comment didn't completely rule it out, but it did say that it was unlikely that 3TB support would come to Sparc.
The migration from a Sparc ReadyNAS to a x86 ReadyNAS (requires you transfer your data e.g. across your network) is well worth it. There are a number of new features and improvements that are only available on the x86 line (remember the fact x86 ReadyNAS have much faster CPUs and have better 3rd party development)
The "Test Disks" boot option, Disk Scrubbing, the Online Filesystem Check to name a few features, are very useful. The dual-redundancy option on 6-bay ReadyNAS is also very useful.
