My DS120J is going back and I was thinking of ordering a 2 bay model but the drive is full of my stuff! Would it be possible to fit that drive into a new 2 bay Synology without re-formatting and having to do it all again? Its take me days to get this far and I really don't want to start again!

Hi, I'm a NAS Newbie. Just bought a DS923+ which I'm using in a Mac/iOS environment. Using 3 x 12TB Synology HDD in RAID 5 (as this is just one part of a larger backup strategy including Backblaze and AmazonS3DeepGlacier, I dont feel the need for RAID 6 now) NAS is connected to local network...

Is it possible to use HyperBackup on my DS923+ (DSM 7.2) to backup stuff to, let's say, a DS218play, running a lower DSM version? I might be getting an older NAS for backup purposes but not sure if this will work?
