NAS RN212 SSD Detected increasing ATA error count error code
NAS RN212 SSD Detected increasing ATA error count error code I do not see any testing while in the Admin page. I want to test the SSD concerning these errors. This is a new SSD. Is the only testi...
I found the issue, it is an incompatible SSD. I'm not sure why it worked fine for months then started to fail. I'm replacing the SSD to resolve the issue. The existing SSD is still good but will not work on the NAS.

What model is it?
Team Group QX 4tb SSD was the rejected SSD
The SSD in the NAS now shows as a 4.1 TB. I added a 4tb SSD and it will not update the current volume because it is smaller. Is there a way around this? Transfer all data from 4.1 tb to 4tb, boot up on 4tb then add the 4.1tb?

That is the simplest way. Destroy the 4.1 TB volume after you transfer the data and then remove the disk. After that, reboot and hot-insert the 4.1 TB disk.

Interesting. We haven't seen any reports on incompatible SSDs here (at least not in a long time).
Note the Netgear HCL is not a useful guide, it hasn't been updated in a long time.
I am unable to find how to copy the volume to the new drive. Would this be done outside the NAS?
I installed the new drive but since it is smaller it will not expand the volume. I tried to crest a separate volume but the option is not available.
