RN202 upgrade larger discs
Hi I have dual 3Tb discs installed in my RN202, (Total 3Tb of storage) but I am slowly running out of space. In hindsight, I should have purchased an RN204. Anyway, I want to swap these out the dual 3Tb discs for dual 6Tb+ discs. I am looking for documentation on the best way of doing this. I imagine there are complications with simply swapping the drives out one at a time and letting the discs sync. I was told it was not that simple. Where can I find documentation or assistance on how to best perform this upgrade? Thanks for your helpReadyNAS RN202 activity light flashing 30 minutes after boot up
Firmware 6.5.1, RN202 At each boot of my RN202 NAS Box (RAID 1 2TB disks with 400GB of data on), the blue activity light flashes for 30 minutes and i can hear the disks being accessed. I have bit rot switched on all shares. I can still access all my data in this time. is the system doing an automatic file scrub, everytime on boot? If so how do i do find out? I cant see anything in the logs
RN202 streaming to SMART TV
I'm wondering, if I'm trying to do something, that is not possible, or if there is an error in the system/setup. I have just installed my ReadyNAS 202 with 2 harddrives and uploaded a few video files. Same way as I did with my old STORA drive, but I guess this ReadyNas has some more options to play with and should be stronger. When I start my SmartTV (Samsung HT-E6500/XE) I can sometimes find the STORA box via AllShare, but never the ReadyNAS I have installed the PLEX app on both the RN202 and the SmartHub, and via PLEX I can find and watch the videos; but I would really like to find it directly in the AllShare folder from the loading screen, which would also make it more easy to listne to music. Since I get small glitches with PLEX, I guess it would also be better to stream it directly, no? Is it possible to set it up, like I want with the AllShare function, or is PLEX the only way?
