Has anyone added a drive larger that 8TB?

I’m currently doing a parity test on a new to me PR4100 with the usual 24TB setup. Once that’s done and I start copying my library over from another PR4100, I’ll need to figure out what to do with the old one. It currently has 3 6TB Red’s in it (the 4th had a catastrophic failure about 2 years ago). My initial plan was to just add another 6TB Red drive, but now I might consider upgrading the capacity. Has anyone gotten anything larger than 8TB to work? I’d love to buy 4 10, 12 or maybe even 14TB WP Arsenal drives and put them in the old one. Would that work?

Hi @explor202, Yes, I have an 18TB non-WD drive (on sale) in JBOD mode. I’m getting ready to add a second and change to RAID - I think zero (0).

Thanks @mmartian. I ended up just buying another 6 TB Red drive.
