D4-300 question before purchase

Post by statler22 »

Hi my first post here.
Question is, can I connect D4-300 (DAS) to F4-210 (NAS) through usb connection and use it as drive expansion ?
Will be D4-300 recognized by F4-210 or should I use two nas boxes.
I like to use existing hard drives from my two pc's which are used as servers.
HDD's are WD Red 4TB.
TIA

So, We can use these Plugged into the USB of a F5-221 and a F5-422 and they will be detected as external storage?

does that means we have to install TNAS before using or can we just Plug N Play?

Also, would all 4 Drives be detected as ONE Drive or would they show as 4 x Drives in any F5-221 and a F5-422?

I've been looking for a 4 bay caddy to use with my Terramaster NAS machines and these would be great for this purpose.

Would like to hear from @statler22 and his experiences.
