Replacing 2Tb Seagate Hdd with 3/4 Tb Disks
i have to upgrade storage in one of ReadyNas Pro at our company. its RNDP6000 with 6 Seagate Hdds each of 2Tb in XRaid. Please guide me about the process of replacing the Hdds. i would like to use 3tb...
Interesting, I had not known about the 8TiB max growth limit, I did know about the 16TiB limit without a factory reset.
I started with 750GB hard drives but it may have been less than the full six. Is there any way to determine what the original configuration was? Or what the limit for the current expansion is?
I currently have
2 x 750GB Drives
2 x 2TB Drives
2 x 3TB Drives
Total size is 7853 GB (with 10GB reserved for snapshots)
If I started with 6 drives that would give a volume of about 3.75 originally so I could expand to 11.75?
If I started with 3 drives that would be a volume of about 1.5 originally so I could expand to 9.5?
Current firmware is 4.2.19 (if looking for the most stable build should I go ahead and come up to the 4.2.24? I have been looking for any issues which that build might have)
Thank you very much!
