I have the readynas 516.
all 6 drive bays had 4TB WD Red drives.
bay 2 is the one that i replaced.
i replaced it with a 6TB WD Red drive
firmware 6.? (i don't remember) it's a home, but, it's whatever is the latest one in production, no beta.
raid is xraid. i believe it to be raid 6
no, after i removed the disk, the first thing i did was replace it.
then after i put the drive in, i did access the shares.

Sorry. Got swamped and forgot to followup on this. yes I have it set to power down on disk failure. so that's the culprit right there. although maybe it should be smart enough to see a disk was replaced is not a disk failure. but who knows. i'm good with this. thanks.
