I read this. But I have still just two disk, my NAS can not have more. I just replace two 1TB disk by two 2TB.
But now I have raid disk volume still just 1TB (and 2xTB inserted).
So X-raid works only if I add more disks ? X-raid expendable funcion doesnt work just by adding same pieces but larger disks ?
If I will do new raid and format, I will lose all settings in transmission (I had to set up all torrents and wait long hash procedures). That is why I am intersting in how to expand my raid without formatting.

And that slow transfer. I forgot add, that after I connect my NAS by cable direclty to my PC (so no router in the middle) copying speed is normal. I tried change router but router is ok.
So.. NAS - cable PC works ok, copying speed is fast in both direction.
but NAS - router - PC, copying speed is ok just PC to NAS, but NAS to PC transfer is very slow (250kbps).
Disk can not be problem too, I have now new one in NAS and compatible. I tried changed also cable. I really dont know where is the problem.
