Will this support seagate 6TB drive?

Yes it should, nothing in what I have seen mentions it having some sort of a cap.

Works fine w/1 TB every time, but will not do anything with a 4 tb. Tried different hd, different systems, different usb. No response with the larger drive.

No problem with that configuration as long as you have a motherboard that will natively recognize a 4tb drive.

According to the Netgear Hardware Compatibility List Hard Disks website the 6tb isn't listed.That don't mean it won't work,netgear just don't support it.You may see it here.http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20641

I bought mine long before 2TB HDDs existed; I suspect this enclosure might not support a drive of that size. Sorry I can't assist.

I don't know if the hardware recognizes 6TB but I guess it should. I put on mine a 3TB and it works flawlessly with my MacBook Pro at least a year already.

My Seagates were not on the Synology compatibility list, but work anyway. They are 5.8. x 4 x 1 backplane type (ie no cables.) You just shove them into the back of the box. To use, say, SSDs, you would probably have to buy an adapter.

This hard drive is compatible with sata 6gb? I hope your early reply thank you in advance.

I currently have a 3TB Western Digital SATA drive installed.So yes it will support over 2TB. I cannot confirm about 4TB support however.

That is a SATA hard drive, so any SATA cable will work.I am not sure this is a SATA 6Gbps cable, so the link speed may be slower. However, even SATA 3Gbps is faster than you will see with that drive.

Yes it will. I just recently build a pc and used this drive. So you shouldn't have a problem.

Absolutely. I installed a 2TB drive in mine 6 months ago. Works like a charm.

According to the instructions it will only support up to 3TB, but there have been reports of people using 4TB drives... So, you could try it, but to be on the safe side ask the manufacture.

I am about to install a 6TB drive so I will let you know if I am successful but according to intel, it should be fine. The support of your HDD depends on the RAID card. This is a RAID expander and is only meant to extend an existing RAID controllers capacity of HDDs. This does not create a RAID array. UPDATE: I have installed my 6TB WD Red HDD and have no issues. Simply plugged it in, turned on my server, and it showed up in my OS (Linux Mint 17.1) without any issues. No configuration needed. Just plug and play.

I have used it with a 4TB nas drive (ST4000VN000). So, I know it should go all the way up to 4 TB.

I have 10 seagate 6tb drives in my 2413+ and they work great (st6000NM024).
