With the ReadyNas NV+ V2, if you use x-raid, its pretty easy to add more drives at a later time as well as mix and match. Ideally, its best to match the sizes, but u can also mis-match. I think the largest disk will run at the capacity of your smallest drive.

My setup is 2 x 500GiG, 1 x 2TB... the 2TB run's as if it is a 500 Gig hd. Waste, yes but at the time I didnt feel like buying any new drives.
