As the subject line suggests, I want to migrate a lot of data from the DS918+ to the DS1621xs+. On the surface this seems like a simple, albeit, time consuming task.... but I'm loosing data.
The file structure of the DS918+ was not optimal, When the DS1621xs+ was put in service, we attempted to improve the file structure. This necessitated moving folders/sub folders from the DS918+ to the new file structure on the DS1621xs+. For the most part the files were compressed on one NAS, & placed on the receiving NAS & extracted. This was not the best way based on what we experienced. Numerous files were not moved.
The NAS devices are on the same network/VLAN. Client PC is WIN 10 Pro 64 bit OS. Based on where I am at now, I would prefer a method which copies the folder/sub folders/files from the DS918+ to the DS1621xs+ & overwrites/replaces any files on the DS1621xs+.
What would be the best way to accomplish this to ensure all data is moved?
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
