Hi,
I have four 3TB drives in my 4-bay NAS.
Of the (12TB) my net storage available is 8TB.
I want to change these drives to 6TB drives. Can I swap the 3TB drives for 6TB drives one by one?
Doe this device support 6TB disks?
What disks are approved as compatable?
Thanks!

Hi tommy27,
Welcome to the Community!
Yes, you can swap the 3TB drives for a 6TB drive one at a time. This NAS model should be able to support HDD with 6TB capacity. You can also check this article on how to expand the volume vertically.
You may check this link for the list of hard drives that are compatible.
