RN series, legacy, etc......
The limits I know about:
4.1.x (duo v1, nv+ v1, etc): 2 TB disk limit
4.2.x: (ultra, pro, etc): Some rackmount models have a 2 TB disk limit in some slots. Otherwise, no known limit on disk size, but there are limits on volume expansion. A volume can't expand over 16 TiB, and it can't expand more than 8 TiB from its starting point. Volumes over 16 TiB can still be created on 64 bit plaforms, but 32 bit platforms (NVX) have a hard volume limit of 16 TiB.
5.x (duo v2, nv+ v1): No known disk size limits, but the same volume expansion limits of 4.2.x.
6.x (RN10x, etc): No known disk size limits, and no known volume size limits on any platform running firmware 6.4.0 or newer. ARM models have a limit on the maximum iSCSI LUN size (8 TB).

I don't understand the question - can you rephrase it?
