TS-251+ Exos X16 compatibility

[Orangeracer127]

Hi,
I can't find any info on Exos X16 10tb being compatibility with TS-251+ Nas. Can someone confirm if these drives works fine with the NAS or should I look for other drive models?

Any inputs please

In no way am I implying those would or would not work in your unit, but I have been running Seagate Exos X18 18TB (ST18000NM000J) in my TS-231P for the last 2 years, so I would say *potentially*, but I don't know what the technical difference is between X16 and X18.
The only official answer would of course have to come from QNAP.

Although I don't like to encourage people to do this, you could buy them from a replace with a 30 day (or equivalent) return policy. Try them, if they don't work, return them.

Edit: Just saw someone posting about 1 issue with these. I assign "Xeos" is really "Exos" Have you tried a forum search?

I did search but didn't find much info. Seagate Exos are the enterprise range. Iam getting them on better price deal than ironwolf and more capacity that's why tempted and asking the question.
