Ultra4 4x2TB -> 4x3TB
I am looking to go from 4x2TB -> 4x3TB in my ultra4. If I replace the disks one at a time will the NAS recognize when it has 4x3TB and expand the volume? Or will I have to do a factory reset? I am hop...
What disks were installed when you last did a factory default?
You cannot expand your volume by more than 8TB. So if your volume capacity was 2.7TB when you last did a factory default you can't expand past 10.7TB.
Provided you won't hit the 8TB limit replacing the disks one at a time would work. After the resync completes replace the next disk. You may need to reboot a few times before expansion takes place. Wait 5-10 minutes between each reboot.
