Is there a max capacity for this enclosure? (I believe WD is releasing a single 10TB drive)

Current firmware supports 5 and 6tb drives.http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-My-Cloud-EX2/New-Release-WD-My-Cloud-EX2-Firmware-Version-1-04-04-7-23-2014/td-p/769457

Each EX2 personal cloud lists its own max capacity . I've seen it in 4TB, 6TB & 8TB. However, 10TB and above are usually used for businesses.

I've chosen Western Digital because of reliability. I've owned 4 WD drives: An 80GB, a 160GB, a 500GB, and this 1TB, and haven't had one of them fail on me. But as another user stated, WD sends just the drive itself. You'll have to download software, find screws, etc

If its a 3.5 HDD thannit should work. But the only bad thing about the enclosure is that its a pain to take apart. If you have a few bucks to spar I recommend something that is easier to open.

Yes, I have one built with 4x6TB WD RED drives in an 18TB RAID-5 volume. I was able to format it with GPT, NTFS. I tested copying files, and I ran a chkdsk /r to test the free space. Everything looks good so far. I am going to be using it soon to fill with data.

I bought mine long before 2TB HDDs existed; I suspect this enclosure might not support a drive of that size. Sorry I can't assist.

Amazon have been sending me the WD20EARS-00MVWB0!If you do buy it, please buy it thru my Amazon Store, its the same price and I get a small kickback from the sale.http://astore.amazon.com/brisperpag-20/detail/B002ZCXK0IGreat drive btw, use this for my main data partition and for an external backup drive on many servers.

This is an enclosure will only hold a standard 3.5" Internal SATA hard drive. It does not include the hard drive.

According to Sabrent website, for this model, the max is 2TB. If you wish holding more room, get the USB 3.0 model instead.

Absolutely. I installed a 2TB drive in mine 6 months ago. Works like a charm.

I'm only using the one drive it came with right now. It might have software raid. You can ask the seller via their support link at deepdiscountservers.com.

From what I've read, make sure the firmware on the Drobo is up to date you should be fine with drives > 2TB.

Each drive will always be a bit different, as no two drives will have the exactly the same free space. Mine is 931GB

While I have not verified this myself, the Specifications on the outside of the box shows "HDD Size Supports up to 2 TB"
