Hello Everyone
It's been a while I haven't been around and was happy with my QNAP TVS-463, however now as the price of m.2 has been a lot lower than few years ago so I bought 2TB m.2 to replace my old 2TB HDD in QNAP.
This 2TB HDD only used for system so I didn't do any raid but now to replace that with m.2 I so don't know is it possible to do it without me having to move everything manually?
Any suggestion are welcome Thank u

The joys of not running RAID..If you are fine installing some apps from scratch..most of the system is distributed across all internal disks anyways so,as mentioned, only some apps need reinstalling

Or should I raid1 new 2TB SSD with old 2TB system HDD ?? Will this improve performance?

mixing ssd and hdd in a raid1 will not do anything for performance..no

Re: Replace system non raid disk with M.2
Well, a bad idea, but... there was a thread sometime ago to migrate a single disk into raid1 with a second (new) disk and "migrate backward" to single disk again (by removing the old disk).
I do not keep it exactly in mind, but there was a lot of commands by CLI.
No idea, if you can use this "workaround" for you.
I did that never myself. A backup should be available (at every time!).

A raid is never a substitute for backup! Never!
