3 & 4Tb Drives

Sorry for being lazy - I could probably search for the answer...

 

I built my WHS2011 server 2 years back and used 3 x WD20EARX 2TB drives because (a) they were at a great price point and (B) I read about issues using bigger drives so wanted to play safe.

 

Now I want to add more drives, I see that the price per TB of the 3 & 4TB is slightly better than the 2TB. Will I face any issues by using the bigger drives?

 

Note that I don't have a physical space issue since I used a big tower with plenty of 3.5" bays and have 3 SATA connectors spare (plus more if I buy a PCI-e card). So the only reason to go for a bigger drive is cost (although it is not a huge saving so if there is extra effort/risk involved then I'll just use 2TB drives).

 

Also I am using Drivebender but I shouldn't think that matters?
