In a review that I had read it stated that in order to use the EX2 Ultra with 8TB drives you need a larger power supply. But I cannot find anything about this in any documentation from Western Digital.

Does anybody have any information about this?

WD Staff?

Nevermind. It comes with the larger power supply.

Hello,

I believe I was wrong about the power supply. I believe that I misread it.

What is the wattage on the Ultra.

I ask as the DL4100 cames with 19 Volt 90 watts ( 4.7 amps ) power brick
BUT the current support replacement is 120 watts and was out of stock

I was having random power errors with the 90 watt brick when all 4 (4 TB) came out of sleep mode
and I was using a UPS and problem ended when I used a 120 watt brick.

Many high end large laptops use a good 120 watt power brick (19 Volts) and have the same power connector plug. ASUS come to mind and cost about $50 US

The power brick that comes with it is 12volt 1.4amp 36 watt.

Support said I need a 12volt 4amp 48 watt power supply.
I was told to “go to Best Buy or somewhere & buy one.”
