Q: VTrak E/J-Class for OS X Max Capacity

Hi all

Recently I cam to own a "VTrak E-Class for OS X". What is the maximum HDD size I can use on it? The web-site is not clear about it. The only information I could find is the maximum number of bays (HHDs) I can have attached to it (using a Class J).

I found the answer Max HDD size is 6TB. 16 bays x 6TB = 96TB per unit

Hi Afberendsen,

it actually depends on which Promise Raid you have. The Apple E-Class 610fd will take 2TB drives the Channel 610fd will take 4TB or higher drives. The RAID's look identical but the OSX version is limited by firmware. The X30 which you have a link for is newer and will take larger drives so best you check the model number.

Hope that helps
Beatle
