EqualLogic PS4000X HDD Replacement

Question

Hi all, We recieved a hand me down PS4000X configured using Raid 10 and out of warranty. 1 of the 450GB SAS HDD has failed. Dell support is waiting manufacturer reply if they still can provide this particular HDD modelSeagate Cheetah st3450802ss . I understand the PS4000X supports 400/450/600GB SAS HDD. But its an uncommon capacity and hard to find new replacement. Would it be possible if i just replace the faulty SAS HDD with a 500GB or 1TB SAS HDD? If possible will there be any issue that may arise?

Hi Don, So if DELL's manufacturer is unable to provide replacement HDD, there is no other method i can maintain PS4000X?
