I have a LaCie 2big Network that currently has 2 500GB drives in it (mirror).

I'd like to upgrade the drives to 1TB each using something like this

I know that Lacie sells a 1TB drive designed for the 2big Network but it would seem to me that these drives are standard drives with the Lacie holder included.

Do I need to use their drives or can I get my own? (Their customer support pushes me towards their drives) I'm assuming the device can format the drives for me when I add them in.
