Good Afternoon,
My current setup is Synology a DS720+ (1GB RAM upgrade, 2x 16tb Ironwolf Pro -SHR) mainly for Plex/Infuse MKV files played over network..
I very quickly ran out of space, not realising how much my movie collection would take up (yeah, I know, should have just bought a 920+) and after much deliberation I have taken the plunge and ordered the DX 517, loading it up with 2x Irowolf Pro 2tb (spares from when I first got the DS720+) currently and setting it up as Volume 2..
What I want to do is move the smaller drives from the the DX 517 to the DS 720+, using these for general storage and the larger drives (with the movie data on) to the DX 517, in a month or so I will buy another 2x 16tb drives for the DX 517 and continue ripping the remaining movie collection..
TLDR
Question: Can I just physically move the drives from DX720+ to DX517 to without causing an issue?
Thank you in advance
