Add 2 smaller disks ReadyNas v2 nv+
Hi, Ive got the ReadyNAS V2 NV+ with 2pcs of 3TB NAS disks... Now, I would like to add my 2 pieces of old Samsung Raidable 600GB disks as well... Currently I'm using X-RAID. Do I have to re-install...

Hi,
Thanks for your responce. I think I'm gonna have to do more homework on this. I wanted to move those 600GB disks out of my stationary since they are so loud, and the NAS will be placed in another room so it doesn't matter if that one is lod.
However, I also wanted to be able to have two separate volumes in the NAS since my media files don't require redundancy but of course my personal files and documents will be needing redundancy.
Storage requirements in my NAS
-One big pile of personal documents and files, redundancy and scheduled backups to another device will be needed.
-One big pile of media files, for use with any home device in my network, redundancy NOT wanted, and no backups needed.
Since I had 2-bays free in my NAS I thought I might just as well put those old 600GB units in there to better suit my needs. Still, I would like to be able to buy another NAS if needed to add more storage to the volumes...
Any last recomendations :)
Thanks
