Anyone know what drive ships with this? The wndr4700 rejected 3/4 so far (Sam 1tb, Sea 500, WD 320) only one I got to working was a 60gb/ssd ;-\

I have a 3T Seagate Barracuda that I bought a year or so ago that I threw into it and it works just fine. Try upgrading your firmware.

It does not ship with any hard drive. There is documentation about drives that are supported on the net gear website. I put a 500GB western digital first time and it worked perfectly.

call the company....they are very helpful or email them. I own two of their drives and have been very happy

Bare oem drives are quite different when it comes to warranty. Either buy the extra warranty offered or get the retail package. WD will not replace a bad OEM drive. TRUST ME, personal experience everyone.

I haven't opened my case yet, but I have a 500 GB solid state drive. It's possible it can be a Western Digital, but I don't know if they vary based on drive size. The 1 TB drive could be from a different manufacturer.

Currently running four 4T WD drives , Win 7, 64 bit machinr. No idea if they support boot, using all for storage with four other 2T and 4 other 1T drives. Most are Seagate.

I have 4 Western Digital Red 3TB drives in mine. It has been running non-stop since I bought it. The best investment I've made in computer hardware in long time. Segate and Western digital will both work in it. Not sure if differnt size drives will work though.

I have no idea other than to say it likely is. Check the specs on your existing drive, and if they're similar, I'd get it. It's a very good, fast and seemingly reliable drive. Easy to install. Do not buy the WD!

Nope. I purchased the diskless server as well. The one with disks just ship with WD Reds.

No idea but Google around. I see lots of comments about SSD and RAID setups on the net. Good luck!

It is confusing/missleading on Amazon. The DS213+ priced at $399 does NOT include disk drives. Amazon have a seperate listing for a DS213+ 2200 with 2 * 2TB drive priced at $799 (showing out of stock on 12/15/12). I am still very pleased with my DS213+ which I fitted with 2 * 4TB drives. It certainly wasn't the cheapest NAS but so far has worked flawlessly.

The WD Red Series are the only drives I put in mine (17 of the 3TB ones). I would strongly suggest the 3TB or 4TB versions of the WD Red NAS drives for this unit and nothing else.

New 1.06 FW was just released this morning... with support for 1.5TB drives.I'd watch for problem reports on D-Link's forum for a little while before trusting it with important data, just in case there is a bug.

It's been a while since I ordered this, but I *think* it was the bare drive. Can't be sure, but on another note, I wouldn't recommend Seagate. I own a computer repair shop, and we see more Seagate drives crash than any of the other brands combined. Go with a Western Digital!

This is diskless - just be sure to get HD's that are made for NAS (Seegate ST4000VN000, WD WD40EFRX, etc) do not use energy savers or spin down disks, it will cause havoc on your RAID integrity. So plz do read what drives are supported and are recommended. I put the ST4000VN000, in all of my devices, works great.

I have a 16 GB SSD and a 5400 RPM. Watchout, the disk name is WD7500 but it stands for 750GB not 7500rpm; hopefully the previous commenter is right.

Hi Steve: I Can't verify, already installed in a customer's server. FW revision # looks familiar. I wouldn't bank on getting another drive with the same firmware on a different order - sometimes they are different on the same order. I use the RAID Controller (Adaptec) to update firmware on disks to get them the same.
