Change 2 HDD with 2 new.
Hello,
I have a Readynas RN104 with 4 full slots HDD (10+4+2+4TO).
I buy 2 HDD 10TO.
Can i change a 4 and 2 TO same time and it will rebuild or i must change one HDD and let rebuild after change one HDD and change the other and let build again ?
Sorry for my english, i'm french. đ
Thank you.
You must do it one at a time. You also need to be very careful because there will be three re-syncs for each because of the varied drive sizes -- one for the first 2TB partition on each, one for the next 2TB, and one for the final 6TB. The NAS will sometimes give you a message that it is re-synced when it has not completed all of the RAID layers. Verify on the Volumes page of the GUI that sync is complete before you swap in another drive.
