WD Drives transfer

#1
Hi there, I have a DS418play, with 4 x 8tb WD Red Plus drives, this NAS is getting a little old and seems a little slow. I have just watched the video on the 'best NAS for photographers' with the DS923+ (I have lots of photos). So thinking about buying the newer DS923. Can I just take the drives out of my 418 and plug straight into a DS918+? Is there anything I would need to do or would the new NAS just recognize the drives and work? Thanks Stephen

Yes, you can simply move those drives to a new NAS and use it as normal. No need to set it up again.
DS923+ is the first NAS from Synology that allows nvme volumes if you ever need this. This is also their first 10GbE upgradable NAS.
It is a good choice. Not as great fore remote video streaming though.


I hope this helps.
