ReadyNAS NV+ v2 and 4 x 3TB Drives
I have a ReadyNAS NV+ v2 running RAIDiator 5.3.7. I have 3 x 3TB drives currently and I have ~5.4TB capacity now. If I add another 3TB drive, will I get 8.4TB ~ 9TB or will I hit the 8GB limit? I believe I started with 2 x 3TB and then I added another 3TB to make it 5.4TB ~ 6TB.

- your volume will encounter 8TB limition of EXT4 if you plug another drives in, please upgrade latest firmware and backup all data then factory reset unit.

di niro - OP started with a 3 TB volume [2x3TB]. So he shouldn't hit the expansion limit at 4x3TB (9-3=6).de niro wrote: your volume will encounter 8TB limition of EXT4 if you plug another drives in, please upgrade latest firmware and backup all data then factory reset unit.

Do you have information suggesting that the 2x3TB was not the starting point? Or did you misread the original post?
Also, why are you suggesting that OP move to beta firmware?
