Are 4TB disks supported on the ReadyNAS PRO 2?
Hi, I'm looking at upgrading the capacity of a ReadyNAS Pro 2 box to two 4TB disks. The box is running RAIDiator 4.2.27 (an upgrade to 4.2.28 is planned as well). Checking the HCL (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20641) I see 3TB and 4TB disks are supported. However, the release notes for 4.2.27 (and 28) state "Maximum 2TB drive support on 3200/4200 V1 channels 5-12 due to LSI controller limitation.". What does this mean? That we can insert the 4TB disks but only 2TB would be used? Please advise. Thanks! P.Solved
Disk upgrade ReadyNAS 104
Hello I have a ReadyNAS 104 with 4 x 2TB drives. I wants to replace all 4 drives with 3TB drives. I have taken a full backup to an external 2TB drive as I only had 1.39 TB of data in total. Now do I hot swap ? or power down and remove.? And which drive bay should I start with? Once I have inserted a new drive and resync is complete, should I reboot then replace the next drive. I have looked through a lot of posts on here but none appear to give a definitive answer. Thanks KeithSolved4.6KViews0likes6Comments
