4TB HDD on ReadyNAS 2100

Does anyone know if 4TB drives work in a 2100 V2 running 4.2.27?

I'm looking at getting 4x Seagate Desktop HDD 1.5 drives since they are appear to be a great choice based on testing...

I think only up to 3TB of capacity is supported as per the compatibility list of drives for the ReadyNAS 2100. You may check it for yourself: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20641

providing that the FW that you are using is the latest, 4TB should work.

THANK YOU!!! I did not find that thread when looking.
So that answers the question if 4TB is supported by Radiator....

You're most welcome! Support maybe declined though since it is not on the compatibility list. But the NAS should be able to handle it though.
