HD failure - please advise
Hi all, Today my ReadyNas Ultra decided one of my 2 drives was dead :-( Both drives are: Seagate ST32000542AS I can't seem to find a replacement of the exact model (assume it's been superseded...
Hi all,
Thanks for the swift replies!!
I am running 4.2.22 so am good to go.
Did a backup job from the nas to external USB - assume it's ok....... (job just completed; incremental backup).
Would rather do a cold swap (scared!);
So do I literally; once the new drive arrives.
Locate the dead one. plug in the new and then power on?
Is it really that simple? ; just let it re-sync and sort it's life out! :?
