Hello all,
I am curious about whether many people are using hdds larger than 1TB for their non-pro 5200s.
Of course, the non-pros aren't officially meant to take hdds of larger than 1TB, but a few reports have been made that it is possible, or at least been attempted.
See here and here, for example.
My curiosity is primarily about the 2TB hdds, and whether people have been experiencing any issues using them in their NAS.
Because it appears that the 1.5TB have been more successful, or perhaps more readily tried out.
I'd love to hear from you if you have been using these sizes in your 5200 non-pros, and how they have coped so far!
Are particular firmware upgrades necessary? Is it restricted to hdd manufacturer?
Cheers
