Max Hard Drive size

Max Hard Drive size Hello. I’m going to replace the internal hard drive on my Time Capsule A1470. I’m wondering if one 10 TB or 12 TB WD RED PLUS would fit. Does anyone know what’s the maximun drive size supported by the AirPort Time Capsule A1470?

"I think you’re going to run into power issues as these larger drives pull more power, while it might work for awhile the power supply will overheat and fail. Also these drives putout more heat as well.

Look up the specs of your current drive and make sure whatever drive you go with does not exceed the current draw.

Frankly, I would go with a SSD instead. You don’t need the fastest drive, a cheaper SATA II drive will be just fine!"
