Expansion
Is there a way to expand the raid via USB? or what the best way to add more drives to my ReadyNas 204? I saw they make USB Raid enclosers will that work?

The USB drive would show up as a separate volume so you could still access the data on it from your PCs.
A USB RAID enclosure may be incompatible though.
If you want more space you are best to add disks/replace existing disks with higher capacity disks internally (as described in the article BrianL Linked to) or add a second ReadyNAS to your network.
