WD Red 8TB non PRO for 12 bays

[pettinz]

Hi guys, I read on the WD website that the RED series (non PRO) is for NAS with at most 8 bays.
There is someone here that has tried these HD on more than 8 bays without any issue? I need a solution for 12 bays.
Thank you in advance.

Years ago I had 24-drive WD Red arrays but use mostly shucked WD 10TB's and enterprise drives now.

I've personally used these WD Red drives in a Dell R510 12 bay servers for years without any problems.

I've been running 6 TB x 10 Reds in a FreeNAS box for 5-6 years without issue.
