If i'm running out of space in my 16tb 4 Bay, do i need a new DriveStation or i can just buy new drives? If have to be buffalo HDD or it can be of a different brand?
If you are running a RAID setup then all drives installed must be the same size, so you will not be able to upgrade single drives to a new capacity. Drives used with this enclosure can be other brands such as WD or Seagate, here is the official list of compatible models from Buffalo: https://bit.ly/3yxSnIP
