ONTAP Hardware

Straying outside the HWU re: compatibility

Hi, 
I'm curious if there is any leeway in supported hardware for EOA/EOS systems, such as a FAS8020.  Have a customer running 8.2.3 7-mode and wanting to add about 800TB of capacity, but we want to use larger drives than the officially-supported max of 6TB per spindle.  I do see at higher ONTAP versions, more supported disks come into the fold, but was wondering if anyone had successfully gone outside of the HWU boundaries before. 
Thanks!
