Replacing 2Tb Seagate Hdd with 3/4 Tb Disks
i have to upgrade storage in one of ReadyNas Pro at our company. its RNDP6000 with 6 Seagate Hdds each of 2Tb in XRaid. Please guide me about the process of replacing the Hdds. i would like to use 3tb...
Camelxx, you mentioned the 3TB WD Red drives in an earlier post, then you began asking about 4TB drives but did not specify a model.
The 3TB Red drives (model WD30EFRX) apparently work fine, but the 4TB Red drives (model WD40EFRX) have a problem at the moment that makes them unsuitable for use in a ReadyNAS Pro. If you want 4TB drives, I would suggest choosing another model unless you can confirm that the problem with the Red drives has been fixed.
