ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer drive not adding (RNDP600E)
Hello & happy summery winter Saturday! Question on Pro Pioneer 6.9.6
I have hot removed a 16TB WD Red Pro HDD in slot #2 and added a brand new 18TB WD181KFGX, however the volume is not rebuild...
In this case, third try is the charm and the 18TB rebuilt into slot #2. Now I know to save some trouble if there's no SMART reading using a USB-SATA cable on a drive.
I was beginning to suspect the ProPioneer... nothing lasts forever and I wonder what I might replace it with, another ReadyNAS or other? If it were not for this forum, I'd be unsupported?
My other ReadyNAS is a RN316, and the used 16TB will go there.
Thanks, Ralph

That is a puzzle at the moment. ReadyNAS are in short suppply, and there are many who think Netgear is abandoning the market. (Netgear hasn't said).
If you are looking now, then you should definitely check out the competition, so you at least have a good idea on price/performance of current models.
