Q-Raid 1 Specs Tech

[pizzulicchio]

Hi to all,
i have got a Qnap ts 109 pro 2 and i think to buy , shortly, a ts 119. But this is another story...
I'm intersting to know how it works the Q-RAID function using an usb or an e-sata disk connected to my nas.

Is it a true raid 1 system ? or is it a scheduled copy of data between the two hard disks in a short time?

It's very important for me to know this.

What happens if i keep connected the second disk needed for Q-raid ( via usb or esata ) even after the first sync of raid ? it keeps to stay in sync even if i write new data on the nas disk ?

My question is: TRUE RAID or DELAYED SYNC ?

[Q]

hi

no it's not a true raid, it's using rsync. iirc it's constantly scanning/replicating the hdd so it always stays in snc (which will eat up some performance of course).

if i use q-raid to replicate my disk, is it possible , after, to insert this cloned disk into a new nas ?
( i'm planning to switch from my ts-109 pro 2 to ts-119 )

yeah but only in exactly same model

you can't use one from 109 in the 119
