Hi,
That's great! thanks for the advice.
Do I need to format any of the drives or set-up partitions before I move them into the new RN314.
I was planning on using the x-raid set-up for all the drives.
My plan was as follows:-
1) back-up data to spare 4tb drive.
2) Move the two 2tb drives into the new RN314.
3) set-up the drives in the RN314 with x-raid
4) Add additional 4tb drive set to x-raid
5) copy data over from external 4tb HDD
6) put additional 4tb drive into RN314 (Should I format it first ?).
Cheers
