Can it read/write DD, 720K disks?

Mine could... and it 'should'... since all the 1.44 diskette read/writers were backward compatible. I'd heard 'they' bought these off the used market and put them in a 'USB Box'--- So, the original DD read/writers are ancient---- they went out quick in favor of the 1.44's that were backward compatible. Also, there's a Driver that comes with it you may/may-not need. So--- it 'should', mine did... but I can't promise you 100.00% anything. :-)

I had a small box of floppy discs that I wanted to see the contents, but the drive did not work with them. It would keep indicating that the was not formatted. Not being a computer expert, I just gave up and destroyed the floppies.

I do not know. All that I've learned is that the drives and their external cases are very chipset-sensitive. Probably the case with the electronics is the more important factor. I'd try it, but return it if it won't work.

Yes, you should be able to. I initially had some issues with Toshiba USB 3.0 portable hard disks and one DS214+ and for efficiency sake just switched to Western Digital drives. Never re-checked the Toshibas to see if it might have been a temporary incompatibility that went away with updates to the DSM software on the DiskStation.

Yes you can. You must re-format the card to FAT32 (use Easeus partition program--free). Create an unallocated partion of 300 MB, format to FAT32, and your card will have 59.xxGB to use.Good luck!David

According to the manual it can, at 5X speed (same for write.) However, in "AV Mode," where you connect it to a "smart TV" with a USB connector, the DVD-RAM disks will not work there (nor will Blu-Ray DVDs, I assume.)

I am using it with a 3.0Gb drive with a NTFS file system. Works like a charm

HDDs under 100gig will not work, I tried my old 20s 50s 60s etc,.. they would not work 100+ is ok.

Yes, but the unit is advertised at 5gb/sec. You won't even see that in the real world. I am very satisfied with mine. I use it mostly for backups and it is plenty quick with my Seagate 1tb 6gb/s drive. You should use it with a USB 3.O port for best performance. Also, If you look at the device properties you should set it set for 'Quick Removal' not 'Better performance' so you can 'hot plug/unplug' it w/o worry of data corruption. I have run CrystalDiskMark benchmark tool and the best I get is approx. 90mb/sec on sequential reads/writes. You may get better results. USB will always have some amount of 'system overhead' so you will generally get much better performance w/a dedicated(on board) SATA III controller as on your motherboard. BTW, I also watch HD movies on my unit with no issues. Hope this helps.

Technically, I doubt it. If you treat it as a series of JBOD disks, maybe, but anything with RAID will require the unit reformat all drives. In general, I don't recommend the unit -- it's slow, it's finicky, etc.

It supports 48 bit LBA so HDD size is not limited. Any camera ~500 lines of resolution will work; HD cameras won't.

It is a standard drive, not solid state storage. Not sure of interface technology?

Sorry not sure if it does as the largest drive I read then reformatted was 300 gb.

I suggest you look at their website for their supported systems: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/drive_bracket/datadoubler/

I bought 2.5 Memorex disks and they work great! Sure would be worth a try by buying a few.

Yes; up to 1024 volumes with some DiskStations. Best to download the manual for the specifics of a given model before buying though.
