Hi Folks,

 

i plan to rearange my arry and replace 2x 1,5TB HDD with one 3TB HDD.

I found this:

but this article told me, its not updated for v6.

So i am a little bit confused.

Can i use this procedure or is there a different way to safly remove a drive from the arry?

 

Thanks in advance 

Procedure is the same, in your case it’s probably easier to upgrade one of the 1.5TB disks (the one with more data) to the 3TB, after the upgrade is done copy all data from the other 1.5TB disk and then remove it.

Replacing Multiple Data Drives with a Single Larger Drive

Ah ok - thanks for your hints and the Link - will do it in this way 

Hi guys,

 

Will the 'new config' clear up any other settings, other than the disk assignments + voiding parity?

 

I worry about my users list, shares settings, dockers settings and also cache disk settings/assignments.

 

Thanks

no

 

 

...also cache disk settings/assignments.

 

You won't lose the cache settings but cache disk(s) will have to be reassigned.
