Evening all
As a relative newbie to having a NAS (21Tb RAID 5), I am now rapidly running out of space so would like to add an expansion cabinet which I would then populate with 4 additional Seagate 12Tb Ironwolf NAS drives.
I am currently running RAID 5 on my Asustoir, so how would I add these drives thus increasing my capacity or do I have to create a seperate RAID array ?
Advice and or guidance would be much appreciated.
It is used for 3 PC b/u (Acronis Cyber protect) and also as a PLEX server(a;llso backup).
Many thanks from a new member.
