    AFAIK my RND2000 has a X86, so i should find a different X86. Ah .. pff are they still available?

    None of the Duos are x86.

    The v2 (which presumably you have if you are using X-RAID2) is ARM.

    Newer models use a different filesystem. So you should purchase new disks and transfer your data across your network e.g. using a backup job.

    lenart - can you confirm your model number? Maybe also post your firmware version, since that will tell us definitively what platform you have.
