Unsigned Disks RDD516
Hi, I just bought a Netgear RDD516 of a friend of mine with 3 new disk but can't get it to accept these disks. I have looked at the other forum post, but there wasn't a clear explantion on how to fix...
Hi P1ka,
Welcome to the Community!
May I know the brand and model of the hard drives?
The ReadyDATA platform only accepts HDDs and SSDs that operate with 512N sector size. Drives that are 512E or 4K will NOT work on ReadyDATA OS. The disk will show as "unsigned" when it does not meet the requirements.
Regards,
The disks are 3x WD Blue 1.0TB.
Online I found that if I was to get new disk I would need to get from WesternDigital atleast the Ultrastar SATA Series.
Hi P1ka,
May I know the exact model number of the hard drives?
You will need to confirm if those disks operate with 512N sector size
Regards,
The exactmodel number of the disks: WD10EZEX.
