NV+v2 Expansion failed going from 3x3Tb to 4x3Tb
Hmmm ... I have just suffered the "Expansion Failure" on introducing the 4th 3TB disk to my RND4000 ReadyNAS NV+ v2. The history is ... initial boot was with 2 x 3TB Seagate Barracuda ... all good ...
Next question is ... should I take any immediate action to settle things down pending a solution?
Is it feasible to drop the 4th disk out of the md array until perhaps new firmware?

Did you ever get an answer or find a solution to this? I'm having a similar issue, which I'm pretty certain is not because of any 8TiB limit... but I am getting that "memory allocation failed" message every time it tries to do the resize. About all I've been able to come up with is going to buy a big USB drive, backing the whole thing up, and doing a factory reset. But if there's a better solution, I'd love to hear it!
