All the mounting holes won't line up, but it's compatible. The toolless mouting won't work at all. Using just the two screws that line up is typically sufficient -- just don't ship it that way.
That is not a current model NAS, so I assume you are buying used. Do be aware that Netgear warranties are not transferrable.
I've had this unit for 5 years now, yes the mounting holes didn't line up when I upgraded to 10TB drives last year, but made modifications to suit, then went from 4 screws to 2 screws to secure, so the 16TB drives are the same layout as the current 10TB drives, so guess it's ok to proceed?
Also, would moving a JBOD volume disk to another channel lose data?
