I inherited this NAS with 4x 2TB drives in a single RAID 6 array. The original drives were Seagate ST2000DL001-9VT1 according to the web gui.

The NAS experienced a drive error today and I was wondering if I need to replace with exactly the same make and model of drive, or if I can substitute with another drive of same or larger size? The original drives look like they're hard to get.

Anyone have experience with this type of replacement? Thanks in advance.
