Whats the largest hdd for kv8

[ASinfield]

Hello, i intend on using my old PC as a server using FreeNas My motherboard is an ASUS Kv8 SE DELUXE and I would like to install as much HDD space as possible. My question is: what is the largest HDD I can install in each SATA slot. There are 4 slots but I'm not sure if they can all be used at the same time. 2 seem to be for a raid configuration but I don't know if you can use these at the same time as the other 2 slots. Any help would be really welcome. Thanks

You can use all four ports at the same time. 2TB disks should work, not sure about the 3TB models.

Thanks, much appreciated. I've been looking all day to try to answer that question myself.

I have one more question sorry. Do I have to set up the 2 raid sata slots to Raid 1 in the motherboard bios first or can I get away with just plugging all four HDD's in and using the FreeNas software to configure my HDD's to make a back up copy
