Upgrade 102 to 316

I read an earlier post that said going from a 102 to a 104 is pretty easy. Just pull the drives from the 102 and pop them in to the 104. Is this the same going to the 300 series? I know the 300 series is x86 and the 100 series is ARM. Was wondering if this would be an issue with the OS? 


Thanks.,

  • If there are no apps installed, you should be able to simply migrate the disks.  Always good to make a backup first though.

     

    Depending on the firmware history on the RN102, you might want to start fresh anyway, there have been some adjustments to the BTRFS config that are only applied if you create a new volume.

      Currently no. I only have the readycloud enabled, but other than that its just a plan old bucket for data ;) Thanks for your help.

       

      I should mention I have it mirroring.
