Hi, am thinking about buying my first NAS to move my Plex server to a new Synology DS920+ with four Seagate Ironwolf NAS 8tb HHD. One problem is I cannot afford the NAS and all four hard drives at once. I would like to by the NAS and one 8tb HHD and add the others as I can find deals. So, my question is will I be able to switch from Basic to RAID 2 then to RAID 5 without losing all my data as I add drives. Thank you for any help.
