Base unit + expansion: single raid 5 possible?

Post by DMD61 »

Good morning.
I intend to connect the TR004 (4HDD) expansion to the TS431K (4HDD) base unit, I ask if it is possible to create a single Raid 5 pool.
Thank you

It is possible to create a single pool in the NAS, and a separate single pool in the expansion unit.

But, it's not possible to create a single pool that includes both units.
