Add the following Drives to the user tested list:

Hitachi - 1GB (was pulled from my Cavalry external drive case) 7200rpm 16MB Cache

Been using both in a RAID 1 config for a month now.

The first list below contains published D-Link approved and verified Hard Drives (HDDs). The second list contains HDDs tested by D-Link forum community end users. If you would like to contribute a HDD you personally tested to this list, please post the HDD make/model/capacity, configuration, length of time in use, and observations (e.g. stability, performance, etc) as a reply to this thread.

*Disclaimer: Hard Drives (HDDs) categorized as tested by end users were neither internally tested nor verified by D-Link. As such, users who opt to purchase HDDs on this list categorized as tested by end-users for their ShareCenter DNS-325 do so at their own risk.

**Disclaimer: HDDs labeled with "**" were published on the official D-Link Russia FTP site on December 5, 2011. Since these HDDs do not reside on the official D-Link U.S. FTP site, D-Link U.S. does not guarantee the compatibility of those HDDs with U.S. DNS-343 hardware. Additionally, this list was not accompanied with a narrative describing the level of compatibility with different HDD configurations (e.g. Standard Configuration, RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, JBOD). As such, users who opt to purchase any of these HDDs for their DNS-343 do so at their own risk.

"D-Link U.S. does not guarantee the compatibility of those HDDs with U.S. DNS-343 hardware".....

DNS-343????? We are talking about DNS-325 :-).

Anyway my HDD is "Seagate - Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS - 1 TB" (HDD labeled with "**" in b/m list) and it is fully recognized and supported by DNS-325 (firmware 1.02), so Russian FTP site, this time, is right :-).

2TB Seagate ST2000DM001-9YN1 seems to be working fine on firmware 1.02 after a few days, except for a loud chirping noise on (I think) drive spin-up.

The first list below contains published D-Link approved and verified Hard Drives (HDDs). The second list contains HDDs tested by D-Link forum community end users. If you would like to contribute a HDD you personally tested to this list, please post the HDD make/model/capacity, configuration, length of time in use, and observations (e.g. stability, performance, etc) as a reply to this thread.

*Disclaimer: Hard Drives (HDDs) categorized as tested by end users were neither internally tested nor verified by D-Link. As such, users who opt to purchase HDDs on this list categorized as tested by end-users for their ShareCenter DNS-325 do so at their own risk.

**Disclaimer: HDDs labeled with "**" were published on the official D-Link Russia FTP site on December 5, 2011. Since these HDDs do not reside on the official D-Link U.S. FTP site, D-Link U.S. does not guarantee the compatibility of those HDDs with U.S. DNS-325 hardware. Additionally, this list was not accompanied with a narrative describing the level of compatibility with different HDD configurations (e.g. Standard Configuration, RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, JBOD). As such, users who opt to purchase any of these HDDs for their DNS-343 do so at their own risk.

Hi

This is confusing so please allow the less techie than the usual people to ask for simple answers - I have the DNS-325 with 3TB WD Green drives and can only see 767GB. There's a lot of material here about which additional drivers and what all - please, someone, explain in simple terms what I need to download, from where, what to do with it and then I will have the full Raid 1 3 TB (2 X 3TB) available...

Thanks!

Gerard

DNS-325
*Problem with two band new WD30EZRX drives.
I have searched the web for several hours and I'm pretty sure I've covered all possible reasons for the problem…except that these disks are not compatible with the WD30EZRX...or both brand new drives are faulty???

I have spoken to D-Link support - case ID (C05635611).  Since these disks are not on their ‘official’ list, they had nothing to offer…except that I would have to buy 2 new ‘supported’ disks.

The 325 correctly see the drives as 3TB and the initialization process competes.
When the formatting hard drive process starts, it freezes at 0%.
After 30 minutes, still at 0%.
The drive light is on … steady no flickering.  Cannot hear the disk spinning
The 325 power light is off

The 325 has been working well since Oct 2011.  When I put the 1 TB drives back in, all is well…

Here's what I have done:
1)   Reinstalled the firmware 1.02 (09/30/2011)
2)   Added only one drive to the 325 (i.e. one bay empty) tried both Left and Right sides
3)   Hard reset the unit back to factory (reset button on back).
4)   Tried to install the disk using first the D-Link software and then the web interface
5)   Tried to format  the drives in my old Windows 7 box.  The drive is not recognized as 3 GB; it is shows the size around 720 MB.
My main computer is a mini mac, so I have no other way to test these disks.   Given the success of others, I suspect both of these disks could be faulty????

If there are any suggestions of what I can try next, it would be very much appreciated (outside of spending another $300+ for new drives)

Thanks

Although this model is not officially supported by D-Link, the compatibility list contains to users who reported successfully using this model HDD (one in standard mode and the other in RAID-1). Checking the obvious first, re-validate that you did in fact install FW v1.02. Only the latest FW will recognize 3TB HDDs at their full capacity. The problem you are describing is typically indicative of using older FW. Also, physically inspect the HDDs themselves, do the labels say "WD30EZRX" and "3TB"?  ???

Thank you for responding to my problem…

Both drives (label) clearly state: 3.0TB WD30EZRX
I downloaded the firmware from the Canadian DLink website: http://www.dlink.ca/products/default.aspx?pid=DNS-325&tab=3

Post upgrade my DNS-325 clearly shows that the 1.02 is the current firmware.

Here’s a few more things I can test
1)   I will test the 325 by formatting a 1 TB drive (a matching spare to my operating Raid 1)
2)   If this works, I will try reverting back to firmware 1.01, and then upgrading again (this time I’ll download the firmware from the US DLink site)
