I have 3 16TB HDDs in my DS920+ that I just configured in a storage pool with SHR1. From the guidance here, it seems I cannot add an old 12TB HDD to the pool. Specifically: "The drive you want to add must be equal to or larger than the largest drive in the storage pool, or equal to any of the...

Basically my DS416slim uses Shared Folder Sync to mirror a folder on my main NAS. The 416 is running out of space and it already has the biggest possible HDDs in it (2TB x 4). I've not really got much use for this NAS other than as a mirror for this folder, so if I can't expand the space it's...

I have a DS920+ and my storage pool is 21.8 TB and my volume is 15.7 TB. I go to settings but I don't see where I can expand the volume. I will attach some screenshots. Thanks in advance. Scott

Hi I would like to replace 3 SSDs in my Storage Pool with 3 HDDs of bigger sizes (red marked ones). I know it sounds strange but i need to send back the SSDs due to a wrong initial evaluation :cautious: In the specific: - I need to replace Drive 1 with an HDD of 16TB - I need to replace Dive...

Hi All, I am new user to synology, I have ds718+ installed with 2 hard disk ( 6tb and 8tb ) when i expand it with SHR it show only 5tb total storage. How i can expand the size.

I started out with one 4TB drive in my DS414J and recently had been close to running out of space, so I purchased another drive of the same size with the intent of installing it in the NAS to expand the available capacity from 4TB to 8TB. When setting up the new drive in Diskstation I chose the...
