ReadyNAS Ultra 6 expansion
Hello all, first off, hats off to Netgear for their products and to all of you for creating this amazingly resourceful forum. However, I have two specific questions regarding my setup I haven't bee...
follow up on my previous post. I've been thinking and I reckon this is the best solution. I buy four 4TB drives and replace four of my 2TB drives one by one. At that point I will encounter the 8TB limit problem. Then I use my four 2TB drives to backup the data from my NAS. I remove the last two drives and then do a factory reset. At that point all data on my NAS will be lost, but it will all be backupped at my 2TB drives. After the factory reset, I can move all the data back on the NAS. Then I have four out of six slots used and I can (please correct me if I'm wrong) at a later stage buy two more 4TB drives and expand.
Would love your opinion on this plan..am I overlooking anything?
