thanks.
re backup -- if something were to happen, i would lose media that we primarily stream at home. pictures, home videos, etc. are also backed-up to the cloud. i think we're in decent shape in that regard. not a place where critical docs are stored. but your word of caution is a good one and i'll review the contents and make sure all of the content we do care about is also safe elsewhere.
thanks for the link of compatible disks. so, i can simply add larger disks. i assume i should add two of the same. what will the effect be on cumulative storage capacity? will i simply see the same folder structure as present, but have more storage? or will the two new disks have a new set of folders with content?
sorry for the newbie questions.
