Hello William,
Thank you for your support, this keeps us going.
There are few options to migrate your data. The easiest is to simply move drives to a new NAS. That is the simplest option. But if you have new drives, you will need to either copy data manually or use Migration Assistant app on your NAS https://www.synology.com/en-uk/dsm/packa...nAssistant

Some people prefer copying data to a USB drive and then transfer them to the new NAS (via USB again). So often USB (5Gbit/s) is faster then regular LAN (1Gbit/s). Migration Assistant is much simpler, though.
If you have data on two different NAS systems, you may as well use Hyper backup option for one of them https://kb.synology.com/en-uk/DSM/tutori..._and_later
If you want to change file system and RAID type, USB copy will probably be the fastest option.
I hope this helps.
