Re: RAID 1 to raid 5 migration

OK nevermind... Since there were no other options available, I went ahead and confirmed the migration on setting of RAID 1. After that, the system displayed a migration process to RAID 5. It would be helpful if the menu screen would display a short phrase explaining that. (this will convert your poo...

Re: RAID 1 to raid 5 migration

Also... The two empty disks are showing when I edit the pool but if I try to select both of them in my attempt to migrate from raid 1 to raid 5, a message pops up and says "You can only select one disk."

Re: Replace all drives and change RAID

it seems this is not possible, you just can not replace your drive which is already configured in a RAID with a smaller size new drive. you have to back up your data, delete the current RAID 1, and rebuild a new RAID 5 with your 4TB drives.

Replace all drives and change RAID

I have a Terramaster F4-210 currently set up as RAID 1 (mirror) using two 6TB Ironwolf drives. I want to replace the two 6 TB drives with four 4 TB drives and convert to RAID 5. There IS currently data stored on the system. Could someone please outline the steps I would take?
Thanks
