WD Red Plus WD100EFGX in 923+ ?

[SdeGat]

It seems the subject HDD is not listed in the compatibility listing.
But that’s the one that I saw on sale.

Is that HDD a no go or will it still work?

That should be fine for your DS923+.

Thanks @Telos, I just didn’t know what to expect with all the issues raised these days with HDD compatibility.

Thats mainly for the X25 models, but soon it will be thing of a past

SpaceRex just released a video declaring the DSM 7.3 will emancipate the hostage HDDs and SSDs. Still little hope for the NVMe's.

No hope for nvmes, so don’t hold your breath.
