That warning can normally be ignored ( I have had to reinstall the beta a number of times), But have a backup just in case.

1. Download the TOS5 image and save to desktop of your PC/Mac
2. Shutdown NAS
3. Pull the drives from NAS
4. Power on NAS
5. When prompted about no HDDs, reinsert disks then wait for them to be checked
6. Now install the TOS 5 image from your desktop
7. When prompted setup Superuser Account and then it should be plain sailing

Thank you. I really wish that warning was removed or stated clearly that it wouldnt delete existing data. As by the time you see it, its too late to do a backup since you have already wiped TOS.

I regretted doing the update, and stalled at that warning thinking I was screwed, and support gave me mixed messages, live support said I would lose the data but email support said it was normal and wouldnt. I proceeded after your post and everything turned out fine in the end. TY.

I've given up on this happening, I use Foldersync and Fie Explorer apps and both work well.

I used those apps too, but then I switched to resilio sync which is much simpler. Have you ever tried it?

i keep seeing "Custom" but im not seeing where this is. what am i missing? am i the only one? All i see is automadic install or Manually download and install from TOS. Am i missing a step?

When i used the Manual option i get Installing has TOS failed! Please restart TNAS and try again i have done this a few times with no success.

Note: I couldn't edit or delete my last post. Sorry mods.

I can not check it but I did all the updates before doing this. I did try to past the initialization process but it fails every time. Is there anything I can do? Iv tried both automatic and manual and every time it fails.
