ReadyNAS Ultra 6 Plus.... 18TB -> 24TB
Hi, Currently using 6x3TB Seagate 3TB ST3000DM001 drives on a ReadyNAS Ultra 6 Plus. Not a very good drive though imo, had already 2 bad ones, curiously both were in slot No.2 of the NAS... wondered...

If all that is correct, then OP hasn't hit either expansion limit. Of course if the original install was actually done in stages he might be hitting the 8 TiB growth limit.
That is correct.
Original install was done in one shot as 6x3TB.... (not incremental).
I started formatting 3TB's I took out and I will backup everything in NAS to these.
Then I've no idea.....best sounds like to reset to factory defaults with 6x4TB's in place...then copy everything back...ufffff.
