Hi I am thinking about sticking two 750GB or 1 TB seagate drives into my existing NASlite PC. Will it support drives that size?

I havent found anything on the website or forum that tell me for sure.

I don't see why it wouldn't. I've heard of people running 750s but I've only gone as high as 500s.

i have 4 sata 750s in a box attached to a 4 port silicon image based card. I did have to update the firmware on the card to see the 750s tho as mine must have been year or so old.

working fine so far..

Wish I could, its a generic card I got from Tigerdirect, I don't have the box and there are no markings on the card itself. I think I paid something like $35 for it.. I did have to flash it with silicon image flash to get it to see the 750s tho.

I see if I can find out anything more

my unit has currently been up 41 days with somewhat heavy home use everyday
