I want to upgrade my QNAP TS-453A NAS with 4x 12TB HGST/WD HUH721212ALE604 (0F30144).
Two of my disks (older HGST He12) have firmware level LEGNT3D0, and the other two (newer WD HC520) are LEGNT925
Can those 4 disks, with different firmware levels, be put together in my QNAP TS-453A NAS (as "RAID5") without any issues/problems?
Anyway, would like to upgrade the firmware of my two older disks from 3DO to 925, is that possible?

Re: He12 / HC520 Different Firmware
it's software raid ..as long as the drives are read/writable and dont have crippling hardware issues (e.g. SMR) they should work fine together
