Thanks, I think I'll start from scratch as I can live without the NAS for a few days if necessary.
I was under the impression that the Ultra 4 only supported drives up to 3TB but I notice there's a 4TB model (Hitachi 7k4000 HUS724040ALE640) in the HCL - it's probably out of my price range though. Is the HCL still being updated for the Ultra 4 do you know?

EDIT
Four WD drives are now winging their way to me :-)
Over all fairly please with 9TB of usable storage for <£400. Would have been nice to have had a bit of a better selection in the HCL though as I suspect a lot more drives probably would work fine.
