TS-231P2 HDD upgrade

Post by newpcfree »

I have 2 disks WD RED 2TB in RAID1 and I would like to change them with 2 of 8TB. I've done a Qnap procedure for changing disks one by one, but it is not successful and I get an error message that cannot create disk partition. Both the HDD are new and not have partition, when I put back the old HDD starts the reconstruction of the RAID1. Can anyone help me? Sorry for my english :D

can you post the exact error message ?

Did you go through the process window, replace one by one (in pool or volume .. depending on what you have setup) ?

can you post the exact error message ? Not now because it's in reconstruction mode with the old HDD

Did you go through the process window, replace one by one (in pool or volume .. depending on what you have setup) ? In pool because in the volume i cannot find the replace one by one

You can setup static volumes or storage pools (with thin/thick volumes)

Hence my question what you setup .. but I guess you setup a storage pool then.

Yes the replace one by one in under storage pool>manage>replace one by one ... so you say you went through that interface ?

What model are the new 8TB? .. If they are really new and on the compatibility list, no such issue should come up
