Migrating disks backward from OS 6 to RAIDiator 4.2
I have a failed 424 chassis running OS6. Can I move the disks to an old but operating Ultra 4, running RAIDiator 4.2 in order to retrieve the data on the 424? Thanks.
Only if you first convert the Ultra to OS6. It's not a one-way trip, so you can revert to OS4.2.x later, if needed. Just use a drive that's not a part of either NAS's array to do the conversion process.
The conversion process has been posted many times to the forum. Do a search (I recommend Google rather than the forum's own search), and choose a recent posting from StephenB that explains the process.
The reversion process is not as well documented, as few go that route. But I can help if you get to that point.
Thanks, Sandshark.
I appreciate your reply. If the 424 is beyond resusciaition, I think that's what I'll do.
