Hello experts,

I have a DS718+ I use as a media server. I want to maximize amount of storage I can cram into this thing before looking at an expansion unit, however on the compatibility list the largest supported drive is only 16TB.

What are the risks of using larger drives, for example the Seagate Iron Wolf Pro 24TB with this unit since they are not on the compatibility list? Will these drives even work?

Thanks in advance for the advice!
