Drive Size Order?

If you are using XRAID2 now in your V2, then all you need to do is remove disk 1, and insert the new 3 TB drive into that slot. Do all that with the NAS running. More than likely the NAS will ask you to reboot it after a while to continue with the expansion.
You'll end up with the 3 TB drive in the first slot, but that doesn't matter. If you are determined to swap them, you can try that at the end (with the NAS powered off).
You should do a backup first of course (at least keep the 500 GB drive intact until the expansion is complete.)
