ReadyNAS NV volume not resized after upgrade

[jcharth]

Hello Everyon, I though I read in this forum that my volume would automatically increase size after replacing all 4 disks but it did not. This is the model of my old nas

Model: ReadyNAS NV
Firmware: RAIDiator 4.01c1-p1 [1.00a041]
Memory: 1024 MB [ 2.5-3-3-7 ]

The only option I see is to add a new raid5 volume with the remaining additional space. Is this the way it is supposed to be?

If you see Add Volume info, your system is in Flex-RAID mode, and the volume can't be resized. Only X-RAID mode supports the volume resize.

Your firmware is very, very old. I would suggest you update to the latest firmware, backup your data and do a factory default (wipes all data, settings, everything), then restore data from backup.

NB: Before you update the firmware you should remove the ReadyNAS Photos and BitTorrent add-ons. These add-ons are EOL and no longer supported and no longer included in the firmware.
