RN10222D Vertical Expansion - First Time
I'm expanding from 2TB to 4TB on my RN102. I purchased compatible drives (Hitachi Deskstar NAS HDN724040ALE640). The system is running X-Raid Raid 1. I am not clear on how to know if the system is syncing - other than looking at the logs. When I do look at the logs, there are only two entries related to this event - - Volume data health changed from Redundant to Degraded. - Disk Model:TOSHIBA DT01ACA200 Serial:64UTP72GS was removed from Channel 1 of the head unit The volumes settings shows only one drive present (the one I did not remove). The new disk seems to be spinning based on the sound it's making (long buzz, click, short buzz). The power light is blinking in two-blink intervals and the led for the drive I replaced is blinking. Can someone tell me if I'm doing something incorrect or if there's another way, other than the software, to determine if the drives are syncing?SolvedSync to USB drive instead of clear and full backup
Is there a way to sync a folder on the ReadyNAS to an USB drive instead of having it cleared and fully backuped? I have a large share on the NAS and a 2 TB USB drive attached. On this share new files will often be created and old deleted and this will quickly fill the USB drive when using incremental backups. Clearing the whole backup and then copying over 1 TB of files which were already there doesn't seem like a great idea. I've found a workaroud here: How to sync NAS and USB drive , but maybe there is a cleaner way of doing it in the current firmware?Solved
