Adding a second disk to ready nas RN31200 to mirror first disk?
Hi. I have a RN31200 with one hard drive disk. How do I add a second to back up everything on the main disk?? Does it have to be the same make? What do I do? Please help. Thanks

Hi again. Thank you for the help.
What is a hot insert ? Do I need to turn nas off or add it while on??hot-insert means to add the new drive with the NAS running. The drive should be blank (not formatted).

Also will it mirror everything already on the first drive or just new things? I want it to copy everything I already have as I have a load of data on there.The volume will use RAID-1, which mirrors everything (even free space).
Sorry not on this model.
