Max hard drive size for PS6000e
We are looking to replace our existing drives with larger drives. We are not sure of the max size we can place in the 16 bay enclosure. Also, what is the best way to replace all the drives and keep the current configuration and data?

Currently it is on EQL FW 6.0.7. I think the highest we can go is 7.1.14, due to the fact we have PS5000 in the group. Will this version accommodate at least 2TB?
Is there a way to move the data to another device and the restore? Sorry for the newbie questions, new to the Equallogic realm.

We are currently on EQL fw 6.0.7, the highest firmware version we can go to is 7.1.14 due having a PS5000e in the group. Would 7.1.14 support at least the 2 TB hard drives? Also, if we bought drives from a third party, would they theoretically work? 1 more thing, is it possible to transfer the data to a NAS and then restore back after the drives are replaced? Sorry for the newbie questions, new to the Eqallogic realm and SANs in general.
