does it work with 4TB disks?

Not sure about 4TB. Works great with 3TB hard drives in a RAID 10 with my Mac Pro.

The one I received didn't work at all. I returned it for a Drobo. I use 2TB drives in the Drobo so I don't know about 4 in that.

I have eight Western Digital Caviar Green 3TB WD30EZRZ in mine and they work great. They recommend 3TB, but I know of friends that are using 4TB.

We have the seller here indicating that this enclosure will work with a 6Tb drive, whereas there is another question raising an inability to run a 4Tb drive - which is answered by a comment that a 2Tb drive was successfully housed. We need to have the seller or manufacturer settle these questions. IS THERE an upper limit to drive capacity; or are there any limits to drive type or SATA permutations?

Hi Joey S.Yes, it works with 4TB drives, be sure the supplied power adapter is plugged to ensure enough power.Anker Team1-800-988-7973 support@ianker.com Mon-Fri 9am to 5pm(pst)

The Perc6I will not support larger than a 2TB HDD. In order to use a 4TB you would need to upgrade to a H700 controller.

I have actually tried it with a 2TB HDD and it worked fine. Loaded up with no issues. It should definitely work with a 3TB HDD, 1TB shouldn't make a difference. You would definitely enjoy it, i sure am.

The DS2413+ does support 4 TB drives for a total of 48 TB of storage. Here is a link to the Synology page that shows the list of drive models that have been confirmed to work with the DS2413+: https://www.synology.com/en-us/support/hd/model/DS2413+

I have installed a 3TB drive and it has been working without any issues. I believe that the drive size would be more of a function of the operating system and Device Monitor settings. If you have a drive I would try it but if you want to be safe, I would use a 3TB. This is a link to the Mediasonic product forum http://forum.mediasonic.ca/search.php?sid=1802efeb494c71a15013ae8c81a53b31 The product forum does talk about users installing 4TB drives in their 5 bay version of this enclosure.

My drive is a 1 TB drive, I purchased this housing because it is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. Sorry I don't know about a 4TB drive.

The 4TB version has 2-2TB drives hence 4TB. That is in RAID 0 format. If you setup RAID 1 you only have 2TB usable.Good luck

Yes, it does. I've got a 3TB sitting right in front of me. It's a DWC-130 3TB toshishastoragedotcom

yes it does. It also supports 4TB drives. I currently have (2) 4TB drives. It may support (4) 4TB drives but I cannot verify as this is not my particular setup.

Yes, some 4T drives are supported. Hard disk compatibility can be searched for any of their units on their web site: http://www.synology.com/support/hd.php

Hi Frank, Well I don't know only used it with the 3 TB version of seagate , WD and the 4 TB of Hitachi, owned by Western Digital.Do not have a seagate 4 TB near by. My guess would be yes with a small risk of being wrong. cheers Marc

Yes it will work. I'm using it in this configuration with 2 Seagate 6TB drive. Seems like you will have full speed up to 4 drives then half of it up to 8 drives.

This WILL work with drives larger than 3TB. I have one of the new 8TB SeaGate drives in one and it works perfectly.

If it specifies the capacity (eg, 2TB, 4TB) then yes. It can definitely handle up to two 2TB drives, unsure about the newer larger drives. Otherwise is should say "diskless".

Yes 4Tb drives work. The backplanes Rosewill uses don't use a separate controller instead they just pass the SATA connection straight through so any drive size will work.
