Will this work with a 3TB or 2TB hard drive?

I personally have a 2TB installed, so i cannot speak for that. But i don't think it's an issue, since it's just a normal SATA to USB adapter, i don't think that there's going to be an issue with using a 3TB Drive or larger.

I suspect Clavin is correct. I installed 3 of these cases with no problems, but can't remember if any were 2 or 3 TB. You might ask the manufacturer: http://www.rosewill.com/About/ContactUS.aspx

I'm having a problem with a 3TB drive... shows up as 2.2TB and 800GB. Refer to http://www.pcworld.com/article/235088/everything_you_need_to_know_about_3TB_hard_drives.html

I have a 1 TB hard drive mine. If you meant 4TB then IDK. If you did mean 4 GB that drive so old that it would have IDE connecters on it and not SATA so no it wouldn't work.

Yes, it works with 3.5 inch 4TB drives so should work fine with a Western Digital drive.

I have not tried it with a 4TB, only a 3TB, but it works fine with that. Orico's site says it is compatible with all SATA III Hard drives, so I suspect that it would work fine with a 4TB. I believe that Amazon would let you return it if it is not compatible. The OS may limit your partition(s) size, but that would be true even if installed internally in your system.

You can configure the drive to be either 4 TB or 8 TB. The device itself only contains two 4TB drives.

It will work I have an enteral 3tb and the external USB 4tb seagate works fine...

It recognizes and will play content off my 3TB Western Digital drive. YMMV, however, as the manual says it is works with drives UP to 2TB.

I can't be positive since I don't have that model to test, but it has worked with every SATA drive I used it with, 9 so far, from 300GB to 2TB. Unless there is something very unique about it, there is no reason it won't work. The relatively small size should have no effect if the drive is in working condition.

Yes it should work with all SATA and IDE drives up to 2 TB. Only some really old drives that don't support LBA might have issues.

Hmm.. not sure.. theoretically it should work but I didn't want to chance it. So I took my separate external 2TB drive and connected it and it works perfectly

This appears to be capable of supporting a 4TB drive. Once the 2.5 TB is passed, it seems to function properly, assuming that you are running an operating system that supports the volume (64bit system), if not you need to break it up into volumes blow the 32bit system limit.

I am not certain about the drives with capacities >2 TB but I think it is possible that with the right adjustments it could work with 3 or 4 TB I am not for certain tho

I currently have a 3TB drive in it and it's working fine. I cannot comment on 4TB.

You sure can. I have mine working with one WD red 3tb hard drive. Will upgrade to another one same capacity once I get this one full.

No it won't support 4TB drives. According to the specs it will support 3TB.

If your hdd is a 2.5 inch sata II type, it should work. I havent tried a sata I hdd.
