Qnap Issues - Enquiries - 05-22-2024
Dear Nas Compares,
I have a Qnap TVS-871T setup in raid 5 over 10gbe for video editing.
On a recent power shortage my Qnap has failed & whilst it powers on it doesn't boot.
Could I purchase another Qnap 8 bay from yourself and add my existing drives?
Any help / guidance would be much appreciated.
Regards
Gary

I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with your Qnap TVS-871T. While it's unfortunate that your NAS has failed to boot after a power shortage, there may be a way to salvage your data by transferring your existing drives to a new Qnap 8-bay NAS.
Before proceeding, it's crucial to ensure that your existing drives are intact and have not been damaged by the power shortage. Once you've confirmed the drive integrity, you can consider purchasing another Qnap 8-bay NAS and transferring your drives to the new unit. However, please note that the compatibility of your existing drives with the new NAS model should be verified to prevent any data loss or compatibility issues.
