RND2120 to RN202 upgrade
Firstly let me apologise if this post is in the wrong place. Can anyone give me the answer to my question. I have an RN2120 Duo with two 2gb drive fitted. Not only has this unit been great in the p...
old duo uses ext file format
new 202 uses btrfs and the os6 needs cpu that can handle 64 bit
u need new drives for your 202 as new install will format the drive to btrfs so all data will be destroyed.
only way to do it is with your drives in duo are in raid 1. u move one drive from duo and put into 202. then set up 202 with x-raid and then create folders and use backup function to copy from similar folders in duo. after that u may move the 2nd drive in duo to 202. insert and then destroy the volume in drive 2 of 202 and allow x-raid to create raid 1.
safer get new drives for 202 they can be over 2tb and keep your duo as backup
