Hmmm. My Synology DS416play is currently populated with 2x WDC WD40EFRX-68WT0N0 (4TB) and 2x Seagate ST8000VN0022-2EL112 (8TB), configured as a single Synology Hybrid RAID (SHR) pool. I also have a single Seagate 8TB drive (same model) as a cold spare. Should I be concerned?

Aside: I've only used 2.2TB of the 14TB available.
