What Drives for X6? Recommend..?
Looking to finally upgrade my X6 . Running 4.1.7 , I know I have to do a backup ... got an older !t disk for that then factory reset and drop in new disks. I'd like to go with 2Tb disks but not break the bank.
Any recommendations with link to drive if possible. This nas unit has been a nice work horse for me and have only needed to replace the fan once and have 2 spares for the future. I use it as a media server for the home, 3 kids myself and occasionally the wife watching movies, music and picture storage been backing up to a single !TB drive even though the drive is redundant.
Any suggestions on drives... Ive looked at the compatibility list hoping there is something reasonable I missed :)
TIA

- Take a look at the compatibility list for the NV+ (another Sparc ReadyNAS). Any drive on that list should be fine.
- Ended up going with 4 ST32000542AS Seagate Drives. Had some Problems at first but we got that worked out in another forum. Here is a screenir Of what I have now :google:
Thanks Guys
