Using readynas formatted disks in a EDA 500
I have one slot available in my readynas 516. If I switch out all my hard drives with higher capacity disk, is it possible to use my old drives in the eda500 as they are still good, they are just less...

Thank you moderator.
The reason why I want to do this is I run a Plex server on my readynas, this is why I want to add an EDA500. If I get the RN316, will I be able to add it to a plex share on my RN516 as I do not think this will be possible because if this is the case, it seems I should have never bought a 516 at all as I thought I could just daisy chain EDA500s.
Thank you,
Frank
