DS220+ & WD40EFRX? - Enquiries - 02-28-2020
Hello,
Can I use 2 x 4TB WD Red Plus (WD40EFRX) in DS220+ ?
This HDD is not mentioned in Synology's compatibility list, however I red some positive reviews.
Thanks.

Yes, you can. This is a CMR drive which is actually better than an SMR type of drives.Practically any drive will work in a dual-bay NAS. RAID5 is when things change.I hope this helps.
