Hi,
Our equipment is compatible with SATA interface hard drives, and the latest 18TB hard drives are supported.
We will update the official compatibility list: https://www.terra-master.com/global/compatibility/
If you want to use the third hard disk as a hot spare disk, you need to create Raid 1, and you need to replace it manually when one of the hard disks is damaged: https://support.terra-master.com/faqs/t ... h_a_D2_310
To contact our team, please send email to following addresses, remember to replace (at) with @
Technical team: support(at)terra-master.com (for technical support)
Service team: service(at)terra-master.com (for purchasing, return, replacement)

I am looking at getting an Ultrastar drive as well, are there any differences between the 18tb and lower Tb models? I wanted to make sure, if the 18 is compatible, shouldnt the 10tb or 12tb be as well?
