'sup peeps, I've had a mixed response from various sources as to whether the N3200 supports 1tb hard disks. Anyone here know something Really don't want to shell out the cash if it doesn't support disks of that size. Thanks

Based on this document from thecus, the only 1TB drives that have been proven compatible by thecus are ones by hitachi: www.thecus.com/download/other/N3200_HDD_list_2007-11-15.pdfi really want to buy a n3200 as well. i'm hoping that they'll have more 1TB drives certified soon, especially the super cool/quiet green power drives by western digital, and also the new 3 platter samsungs hopefully by then we'll see some of the kinks worked out. the auto-rebuild raid5 issue scares the pee out of me!

Actually I can't even find a 750G drive like Samsung SpinPoint F1 750GB 32MB SATA II (HD753LJ) in the list of supported drives.
Does it mean Thecus is lazy with updates of their list?

Just so happens I had one of these when I just re-built my current system. So I ordered 2 more ...so far so good...Set them up in RAID 5. I have about 1.9TB of formatted space.

My n3200 works great with 3 x seagate 1TB disks. the volume is 1.9 something TB (RAID5). It is allready over 50% full (dont ask).
