Large than 2TB drive recognized as 2TB or not at all?
Hello.
I was wondering if you can use larger than 2TB drives such as 2.5TB drives in the Readynas X600/X6 using the most current firmware?
I realize there are issues with larger than 2TB drive on this type of readynas system but I was wondering if they will just be recognized as a max of 2TB(even if the drive is 2.5TB) or if the drive will not show up at all?
Please let me know how the system will handle a 2.5TB drive.
Thanks for your help.

- If it is recognised it would be recognised as having less than 1TB of space. So no you can't use these drives even on the latest firmware.
