And I bought a Seagate 5TB External HDD. I’m finding reports that it supported only 2TB but has been updated up to 4TB with a firmware update, and found one report of “MAYBE” a 5TB working. Does anyone have a definitive answer?
Hi ArmitageIII, welcome to the WD Community. The maximum supported size is 3TB, larger drives might work, but it is not guaranteed that they will correctly.
I have a Seagate Backup Plus 5TB connected and the disk manager displays the full capacity accurately. I have about 3TB in use without a problem. I am using a WDBHG70000NBK with the latest firmware.
