hi.
i got 6 tb hdd inserted in my my cloud ex2 ultra. i would to like a know if its possible do raid 1 if i put another 6tb hdd. if all data will be auto copy to disk 2 or if i have to make it manually or what can i do. thanks
If your 1st disk has data and it is JBOD, yes you could insert a 2nd disk and migrate your disks to RAID 1. All data should mirror from 1st disk to 2nd disk. As most other expert say, always backup your data first before you do anything. This is just incase something goes wrong.
thanks
one more question: actually i got 6tb hdd, can i buy 10tb hdd and make raid 1? after that buy another 10tb and remove 6tb? thanks
Yes you can but it will be a lot of work.
Option 1: Put 10TB and create it as JBOD, copy all data from 6TB drive to 10TB. Then remove 6TB and insert 2nd 10TB. Then do a Migrate to RAID 1
Option 2: Put the 1st 10th and do that Migrate to RAID 1 with the 6TB. Then remove 6TB and insert 2nd 10TB and do a RAID rebuild. After that do a RAID 1 size expansion.
