Hey Guys,
I've been using Unraid for awhile now and am coming up against a lack of space for all my drives. I bought a norco 4224 to use and was planning on swapping everything into the new case.
This case uses a sas backplane as apposed to the current Frankenstein setup I have which utilizes a LSI sas card to 4 sata cables per sas cable. Card below.

What I'm currently struggling with is if my whole array will come back up again when I swap everything over even if I'm using different cabling and a different drive enclosure setup. Anything connected to the sas card would go into the new enclosure still tied back to the card, just all under 2 sas to sas cables. Everything I've read so far is to play it safe and back it up somewhere and push it to a new server, but thats going to require more drives and more hardware. I'll do that if I have to but I'd rather not have to go through the hassle if I'm just overthinking this. Thoughts?
Also, if I have to go the new server route and I use the trial to set it up is it easy enough to transfer my license to that server?
Thanks!
