Moving to the 1100 is as simple as (hopefully?):
1. Install the All disk in same numbered slots
2. Boot NAS
3. Upgrade Firmware
4. Recalibrate the fan speed
Is the volume scan the same as a volume check? See faq.php#How_can_I_skip_the_Volume_check%3F
Not sure whether technical support will help you if you have issues moving from an out of warranty ReadyNas to a new one.
I'd wait for Jedi to comment on whether it's ok to move your disks to your new ReadyNas or not with a failed volume scan.
Your procedure for migrating disks should be fine. See faq.php#How_do_I_migrate_disks_over_from_an_existing_ReadyNAS_to_another%3F'
You may need to do a USB Boot Recovery and Firmware Re-install when you've moved the disks to the new ReadyNas.
See faq.php#How_can_I_perform_a_Boot_Recovery_using_a_USB_flash_device%3F
