Readynas 2100 disk volume to ReadyNAS 2120
Hi,
Can anyone confirm if a raid5 volume created on ReadyNAS 2100 be useable on the ReadyNAS 2120?
Can I simply swap the drives between the units?
I have a customer that possibly have a faulty ReadyNAS 2100 and looking to swap to a ReadyNAS 2120 as there is no stock of 2100.
Thanks.

No. Different filesystem and CPU architecture.
However you could migrate the drives to a Pro 4 or 3100.
Why do you suspect the 2100 is faulty? Remember that the 2100 has a 5 year warranty so if the customer purchased it new it may still be under warranty.

Initially the unit had a single drive failure drive 4...after replacing the failed drive, a second drive failed during the rebuld. drive 1.
So decided to replace all 4 drives to rebuild a fresh RAID5 volume...that was successful and able to mount it as an iSCSI volume.
However not long after that, the iSCSI drive disconnect and RADAR was unable to detect the NAS.
Have kept the set of 3 drives from the original volume, it was mounted onto another 2100 and the volume appears to be intact. In the process of recovering data from the previously dead volume...
