Hello, I have had my DNS-323 for many years and I have always had two 500gb hard drives in a RAID 0 so that it would be a share of 1tb that I could access over the network. I decided to get two 4tb drives to setup with a RAID 1 and once installed it only allowed me to make a 2tb share within the settings. I have the latest firmware version of 1.10 that I know of and I was wondering if there is a setting I've missed to make a RAID 1 of 4tb and if not if I can make it share two 2tb drives. If you have any questions I will get the answers or if I've missed something obvious to make a single share of 4tb or two 2tb drive's just let me know. Thanks for your help!

I just read into the Firmware Release notes document. It states in there that the max hard drive size is 2tb for the firmware version 1.09 and does not say anything regarding hard drive size for firmware version 1.10. I guess it has stayed the same. I wonder if the next firmware version released will allow for more than 2tb drives. Anyone have any idea about that and if so how long it may be till they release the next firmware version? Thanks

There will be no more FW updates unless there is some major security problem found.

Is there not a way to have two or more RAID 1's created with these two drives? It looks as though there is not within the RAID section.

If the DNS can see these drives, I would try configuring for standard drive format and see if this works. if it doesn't then the DNS is not supportive of any drive size over 2Tb.
