What firmware are you running?

 

If 4.1.x, then you have a v1 (sparc cpu).  Capacity is limited to 2 TB drives.

 

If 5.x.x, then you have a v2 (arm cpu).  The HCL has disks up to 4 TB.

 

NAS purposed drives are good choices (WDC Reds or Seagate VN series).

    Hi Stephen,
    I have a 5.3.8 release, so if I understand your answer, I can mount 2x4Tb

    Thank's a lot
