HD-H2.0TGL/R5 Support

A  woman came into my RadioShack looking to get rid of some computer equipment since we do trade-ins, and ended up giving me a HD-H2.0TGL/R5, a monitor, and Saitek Eclipse.  I did a full RAID 5 setup on the drive, and then when I came home the bottom left light was blinking red, so obviously one of the drives has gone awry on me.  What drive can I replace it with? Or better yet, is upgrading to a larger capacity possible at all in this model?  If not, that's fine, as 2.0 TB of network storage is quite nice to have as is, but if a full 4 TB was attainable, I'd like to make that move.

 

Any and all input would be greatly appreciated.

 

Sincerely,

Jim

A standard 500GB IDE drive will do, this unit will not support anything bigger.

PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.

So just any normal 500GB drive off of Newegg.com should do?  They don't have to be the same make/model?  I just wanted to make sure before I do any buying and mess anything up.  I've never had anything with multiple drives and RAID capability before so I want to take every precaution to not screw it up haha.

Any drive will do, once its the same size, rpm and ideally cache as the other disks.
