FlexRaid2 - Expanding disks
I have a readynas pro 6. It has 6, 3TB drives, for a total of 13TB of usable space out of 18TB. I want to start migrating to 4TB drives, but not all at once. 1.) If I put 2, 4TB drives in there...

Now based on the note:
(2) An expansion that causes the Total Filesystem size to be 16 TB or more after the expansion will fail.
* These sizes refer to the Filesystem Sizes, not raw disk space.
Am I going to have a problem?
No. You're not going to hit the 16TB limit by adding two 4TB disks. However what disks were installed when you last did a factory default? Depending what disks were installed it is possible you may hit the 8TB limit that I mentioned in a post above.
