Maximum size of harddrives in the DSM-G600

I know this question has been asked before but most seems to be old topics.
So I ask the question again; What is the Maximum working harddrive that can be used in the DSM-G600?
According to D-Link it's 400 GB, both internally and external.
Finding a 400 GB disk isn't the easiest, but finding a 500 gb is more easy.

I put a Maxtor in it just because it was on sale. Western Digital or any EIDE drive will work..

... know, it's an old topic, but thought I give my 5 cents:

I used a 750gb disk, but it only shows 680gb for use.

Additionally final usable size depends on file system.


DSM-G600 - NetBSD hdd-boot - 80GB Samsung SP0802N
NSA-220 - Gentoo armv5tel 20110121 hdd-boot - 2x 2TB WD WD20EADS
