Greygoose Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) Hi Unraiders, My disk 1 has failed and has been returned for RMA. I have a 12TB parity at the moment that i want to upgrade to a 14TB i have ready, then I plan on using the 12TB for Disk 1 What is the best process to do this please Edited November 21, 2020 by Greygoose Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I assume that at the moment disk1 is being emulated? If so can you see its contents OK? If so then you want to use the Parity Swap procedure which is specifically intended for the case where you want to upgrade to a larger parity drive and use the current parity drive to replace a failed data drive. If not then we need more information before we can advise on the best way forward. Quote Link to comment
Greygoose Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) I have used Krusader to check Disk 1 and it shows the contents of the drive, so i expect that it is being emulated based on that. EDIT: Just played 2 mkv files from disk 1 so all good I am happy its emulated. I will follow your advice and go with the Parity swap. Thanks itimpi Edited November 21, 2020 by Greygoose Quote Link to comment
