Can I migrate my current HDS5C4040ALE630 (HGST ...

Can I migrate my current HDS5C4040ALE630 (HGST 4TB Drives) from my old DS1513+ to this DS1522+ device?
Asked by: ALESSANDRO C
The HDS5C4040ALE630 HDDs are not listed as compatible with the Synology DiskStation DS1522+ 5-Bay NAS Enclosure. I order to migrate your data will need to populate the DS1522+ with drives that are compatible, like the WD 4TB WD40EFPX Red Plus SATA III 3.5" Internal NAS HDD (B&H # WEDBC9V004H1, MFR #WDBC9V0040HH1-WRSN) then use the Synology Migration Assistant to migrate your DS1513+ to the DS1522+.

Will the Synology read a 20 TB drive as 16 TB and waste the other 4 TB?
Asked by: Frank
The Synology DiskStation DS1522+ 5-Bay NAS Enclosure, (B&H # SYDS1522P), will warn you that the drive is not supported but it would be able to use all 20TB. Keep in mind that this will also depend on your specific RAID configuration if you are mixing drives with different capacities.

Can you move hard drives directly from Drobo? ...

Can you move hard drives directly from Drobo? Have a4 2TB drives with lots of data that I cannot loose.
Asked by: Layne
Hard drives cannot be moved directly from one RAID enclosure to another. All data on the array should be backed up to a separate location. The drives can then be formatted (wiped) and, if compatible, installed into the new enclosure. After setup data will have to be transferred to the new array manually.
