Should I start from scratch? - Enquiries - 01-29-2026

Hello,
I own aQnap 251D. I have had it for 5 years but haven't done a lot with it and have maybe a 100gb or less of photos and home movies.

I purchased a TR 004 so I now have 6 drives so 48TB of disk space and would like your thoughts on what to do.

I am thinking a full re-fresh, just backing up the photos etc.

In the future I would like to use the NAS as a media server, plus personal cloud for all of my photos & my family.

What would you suggest to do??

Thoughts on the best way to run the bays & if I should get anything else to help make is run better.

The old drives were 2x4tb Irnowolf.
