Should WD20EARS be removed from the HW Compatibility Lists
Am not impressed with my wasted disks purchase from the HW Compatibility List. After checking the list, I went for 2 x Western Digital 2TB WD20EARS hard drives for my Duo. http://kb.netgear.com/app/an...

I think the OP is correct - the WD Green drives, both the 2TB and the 3TB models have the well known LCC issue when run on NAS units such as the Readynas, and it has very much surprised me that the drives remained on the HCL lists for so long. I and many others have posted on the forum about this issue before, and Readynas has never responded. It looks like Readynas is now removing the Green drives and listing the red ones, but they should have done this sooner.
Sorry readynas, but I think you could have done better on this issue.
