Best strategy for full NAS backup under 4TB?
I have two Pro Pioneer systems that were set-up three years ago and are due to have their drives replaced with larger capacity drives. Both systems have under 4TB of data. Both have had regular USB...

-HFS+ should work, as long as you can share with NFS.
-Generally NFS is quite a bit faster than rsync for Nas->Nas backups.
-I'm not familiar with cc cloner, but it looks like that will also work. It makes sense to manually check some of the folders (and if it has a verify mode you probably want to use it).
-C is just the data volume. You also want to save the NAS configuration from Frontview separately.
After the reset, (a) reinstall the add-ons, (b) restore the config, (c) restore the C volume. The order matters, you can't restore the config first.
