I have 2 nas' that I am looking at upgrading the drives on.
A TS-431P and a TS-453Be
I am looking at the Seagate ST18000NM000J 18TB drives.
I checked the compatibility list and there are 3 18TB drives there from Seagate
ST18000NT001-3LU101
ST18000VE002-3BS101
ST18000NE000-2YY101
They seem to be the same if not more enterprise models
My Nas' are more for archive and they don't get a lot of traffic on them so I am not as worried about pounding them to death. Just wanted to see if there was another reason to be aware of. I have upgraded drives before and didn't pay too much attention to the compatibility list and have had no problems.
Thanks
Paul

Re: Seagate drive compatibility
Make sure you go with NAS drives and certainly stay away from SMR variants

Re: Seagate drive compatibility
Thanks for the tip. I checked and it is a CMR drive not SMR
