Hi
This morning I got following message for my PR4100:
“Drive failed in Bay 3. Replace the failed drive.”
Here is my question:
My PR4100 has 4 Bays, Where is the Bay 3? Is it third Bay count from left slot?
Now PR4100 is already power down, could I replace new HD on Bay 3, and power on will be automatically fix this issue?
So far it has 2x1.5TB and 2x2TB, and I think broken HD is 1.5T on Bay 3, could put new 4TB on Bay3?
Is all HD must be same speed? In another word could I mixed with 7200 and 5400RPM devices?
I’ll be appreciated for your help.

Are you using OS3 or OS5? You have posted in the sub-forum for the single bay WDMYCLOUD.
You need to go back to the community and post in the sub-forum for your device under the correct Operaing System OS3 or OS5 and the My Cloud Pro Series .
Have you read the User Manual or any Help that is provided?
