Daisy Chain RN102
I am currently at 70% of my 2TB NAS102 (2-bay) and I was under the impression that I can daisy chain another NAS102 to my current system. Like to know before I invest in another unit with drives.

No, you can't. There's an expansion chassis for the x86 platforms, but that isn't available for you.
You can have 2 RN102 on the same network, but they'd be independent. You can also get an RN104 (or any other OS6 NAS) and migrate your existing disks.

OK, then a followup question: If I get two larger HDs, then replace them one at a time allowing the new drive to sync with the older. Is this a possibility?
The volume will expand as a result of doing that (assuming you are using the default X-RAID).
