Moving drives
Hi would this work. As previously posted. I now have an rn312 . I also have a duo v1 with 2 bt drives. 1 . Put in a single spare 500 gig unused drive into the 312 . 2. Copy all files across...
Hi all
Stephen if your there today is dday. I have done a slightly different way. As aks suggested I have copied all data to the 500gig drive. This is now a spare master copy of all data. On USB 2 took 40 hours lol
I have decded to do some much needed house keeping so I have also copied all data to my laptop which is 1 tb. Much of this is already on there as it is the origin of the data and has the originals.
I am now going to run a duplicate/similar file software to clear all copies. Remember I still have the master.
I am going to run the 2x2tb straight into the the 312 and let it reformat. Etc. I will then do some setting up ie ready nas photos plenty of shares to divide the data up and send the files back piecemeal .
My question is if I plug in the 312 and physically put in the drives is that it will it do the rest. Or is there a prompt I need to do in front veiw or readycloud.
Cheers
John
