Hi,
I had purchased an f4-423 nas last year before TOS6 came out, played with it some, used 2 12tb hdd and 1 256 nvme drive. did the inital install to the nvme manual, added plugins, messed around learned the system, and how to work with Nas ( first time dealing with anything like it ) decided to wait for TOS 6.
a few days ago i loaded up 3 12tb hdd, same 256gb m.2ssd and started from scratch to install TOS6, i chose the nvme drive from the initial install options, updated to tos6.06.10 and started loading files. Configured a number of things, a pool/volume with just the hdds, jellyfin, ect. Then i noticed that 2 of my hdd say system disk and that my m.2ssd is completely unused. How do i get the OS onto the ssd? i've loaded almost 5 TBs onto the nas already and was doing that from a collection of 1TB drives. I could unload the whole system again if i must but if i can just move the TOS6 with all my configs onto the m.2SSD that would make my life much easier. Or is this a case of it must be on two drives for redundancy or something like that.
Thanks

Re: f4-432 tos6 installed to hdd, want on ssd
Are you referring to the F4-423?
When installing TOS6, you can choose to install the system only on a specified HDD/SSD.
If you want to install TOS6, you can refer to this guide to select the appropriate image file and install it on the internal USB drive of the F4-423. Then you will be able to install TOS6.

Re: f4-423 tos6 installed to hdd, want on ssd
IYes, sorry, i meant the f4-423. And i've already installed tos6, it's just not where i want it to be, m saying i told it to install onto the m.2 ssd and it didn't. it installed across 2 of my hdd, can i move it somehow or do i need to start fully over?

You might need to reinstall the tos6 system once, make sure to select the SSD as the system disk during the reinstallation. this way you can easily install the system only on ssd.
