Upgrade 3tb My Book

I tried to replace a 3tb with a 6tb WD Green drive.  When connected to a computer, the system only sees a 3 tb.  If updated to the latest firmware so perhaps its the built in controller.  Ideas?

Thanks,

Terrance

It’s probably the board is built for a specific drive and you can’t simply change the drives.
