SHR always uses one drive with the largest capacity for parity, so putting one 14TB in won't get you anything more than what the Synology has now. You will want to buy at least two 14TB drives. Replace one drive, wait for SHR to rebuild, then repeat with the other new drive. You will end up with 2TB more than current. If you were to replace all four 12TB drives, you would end up with 6TB more than current.
The golden question, what's inside?

Extended returns in effect if you're on the fence.


Purchases made October 13, 2020 through January 2, 2021 have an extended return period through January 16, 2021
These won't get lower. BB does this every year, they offer the BF pricing a few weeks ahead of BF and then again at BF. I buy their BF special drives every year and upgrade both my servers and sell off the drives from the year before. It's the exact same scenario every time. This year it's the 14TB. Last year was the 12TB, 10 before that and 8 before that.

I bought the 14 that went on sale last black friday-ish. Not sure if that was air or helium. Is helium better, or worse?
Definitely Helium then. Helium is better than air. Less friction (thinner than "air") so generates less heat.

Theoretically helium is better.

Curious - how do you fill 14TB?
You take out the drives and use them in a NAS in your favorite RAID configuration.

In for 2. Was planning to return the one I bought a few weeks back when they were 229.99 but noticed it's past the return period. Will BB price match? I don't need 3.
