Hello. My DS218j just hardware failed (all green case and power brick LEDs flash with the drives out). It's a little over three years old. Since I have no way to pull the data off of the disks, I thought that purchasing a DS220j and using the 218j's drives as is in the 220j would be a quick and relatively cheap way to get a NAS back in service.

As far as I can tell, there should be no compatibility issues, but I thought I'd ask here just in case. The drives are HGST HDN726040ALE614.

Thanks.
