Terra Master d5 Thunderbolt 3

#1
I do Phot and video editing. I bought this as an alternative to having a ton of HDs to sift trough I basically wanted 1 Archive then keep the extras in a closest some where.

I set it up, put in 4 drives and made a RAID 5 array. dumped 5TB from a drive shucked it and attempted to add it to the array. it said it would take 90 hours to add. Ok, let it run.

Next morning i get up and i guess my computer went to sleep, but it kicked me out to the RAID manager program. I had changed the password, but not i cannot get in at all. The box is over there doing something. the lights are flickering and i hear the hard drives working. I et answer from Terra Master.

In the future can i just pull a smaller drive and replace it with a larger one? will it recognize and expand the array? This whole thing feels like a mess.

Once you replace a drive, you need to allow it finish the repair to avoid data loss https://forum.terra-master.com/en/viewtopic.php?t=2199
Terramaster is not yet well established. Often requires SSH command line adjustments. Not very promising to run it without a proper backup.
