[GUIDE] Upgrade a working My Cloud to a bigger HDD (easy steps)

@Ralphael
These 12 TB WD White Label drive came from a shucked WD Easystore enclosure. The 12 TB WD Easystores are currently $179.99 at Best Buy (Black Friday deal).

Not sure what exactly these drives are though (WD Red, WD Green, WD Blue, etc.) as there isn’t much specification information out there (basically none) about these White Label drives. Best Buy’s website claims these are 7200 RPM drives, yet Crystal Disk Info shows them as 5400 RPM drives.
