TS-328 Adding second HD and creating RAID 1
Hello, I recently purchased a QNAP TS-328 to replace a WD My Cloud EX4 NAS. Originally I purchased the TS-328 and installed a single 4TB WD drive for backup protection. My 2nd WD drive 4TB arrived today and after installing it I cannot seem to find out how to setup a RAID 1 on the system? I see both drives(they are identical BTW) but how to setup for a RAID 1? I understand they will both be formatted. Thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome to the forum.
I've been unable to locate a fine user manual that I can be certain will cover the TS-328.
Maybe try this one. Follow the steps for 'Migrating RAID Configuration' as shown below:

QNAP User Manual wrote:Migrating RAID Configuration
With this function, a RAID configuration can be migrated to a different RAID configuration. This option is supported for the following drive configurations: Migrating single drives to RAID 1; Migrating RAID 1 to RAID 5; Migrating RAID 5 to RAID 6. Follow these steps to migrate a RAID configuration:
- Go to "Storage Manager" > "STORAGE" > "Storage Space".
- Double click a storage pool to bring up the Storage Pool Management page.
- Select a RAID group and click "Manage" > "Migrate".
- Select the hard disk drive(s) from the list and click "Apply".
- Please note that all data on the selected hard disk drive(s) will be erased. Click "Yes" if you are certain about this.
- The chosen RAID configuration is migrated to the new one.
