Gopal - when you swap the drives as above, when you boot the swapped units, you will note they have taken the identity of the drive set. For example when you take the empty chassis from home to the office and install the office set of drives (NAS2) when it boots it will have the host identity of NAS2, the configuration and set up of NAS2. The only difference you will be able to see in Frontview or RAIDar is that the MAC number and serial number will have changed. The users should not be able to detect any difference. Same thing with your home unit.
As for the former NAS2 chassis that is now in your home, if you are getting a sudden shutdown and reboot, you may want to run the memory test several times. At least at home you can work with it without interrupting business operations.
