Seagate 6TB Ironwolf (ST6000VN0041) Incompatible with ReadyNAS disk trays
I took a risk and purchased 4 x 6TB Seagate Ironwolf drives, Model #ST6000VN0041 and unfortunately the mounting holes for the disks are not matched with the trays that come with the ReadyNAS 314. ...
The plastic insert on tool-less trays comes out, so you didn't have to clip the plastic tray to fit the drive in, widthwise.
doesn't that defeat the purpose of "toolless"? And it is not easy to remove the frame.
Well it is a workaround so that you can use these disks with the tray and the screws you already have.
Will Netgear provide an updated tray in the future?

It isn't difficult to remove the inserts, and it's not something you'd touch very often. You'd also need to remove them to use a 2.5" SSD.
