Thecus N4100PRO & Samsung Spinpoints

[CK1]

I am thinking of getting the Thecus N41000PRO NAS box and already have one 1TB Samsung Spinpoint that resides in my PC. I would preferably like to buy 2 more Spinpoints so that I can make a RAID 5 array (including the disk from my PC). However the only 1TB disk on the compatibility list is the Seagate Barracuda.

This might be a silly question but does this mean that other 1TB HDD are not compatible or simply haven't been tested? Or is there anyother reason why other HDD are not compatible?

I find it hard to beleive that there is only one HDD of this size that is compatible, but nevertheless would like to know before I spend several hundreds of my Pounds.

Thanks for any help.

Dear Sir,

In reason of we have no the Samsung 1TB to verify the compatibility, thus we won't recommend choose this HDD, thus please refere to the HDD list for HDD on N4100PRO, and we would update the HDD list for new HDDs as possible.
