Changing the RAID

Post by skeeter_93 »

I just set up the Terra-Master F5-221. It is on RAID 6, but I would like to change it to RAID 5 before I start filling it. When it was setting up it never gave me an option to select which RAID. Now I am trying to follow the instructions to change the RAID, but I don't have the same options as illustrated. When I look at my storage pool there is no option to edit, just delete. I have attached a screenshot of the instructions and of my page. My TOS version is 4.2.18-2110301149, perhaps I have an old version and it needs upgrading? Thank you.

you are not able to roll back to RAID 5 from RAID 6, you can only delete it and rebuild it.

Thank you, this worked well. One more question, is there a way to see what is stored on the TNAS via Windows Explorer? At the moment when I click on the TNAS icon it opens a browser window.
