Synology HDD Migration

[Enquiries]

Hi guys

I recently purchased DS923+ and upgrade from 9 yrs old DS414.
I got two new Ironwolf 12TB drives put them in 923+ and copy all of my files from two 4TB Reds using Hyperbackup.
New drives are BTRFS and SHR1. All good and dandy.

But I have two more 6TB ironwolves in DS414 I want to migrate to DS923+. If I just move them over to 923+ to the same slots would I retain all the data? I really don't want to spend another 24+ hours moving and restoring via Hyperbackup. I don't mind these staying as RAID1 and EXT4.

Any advice?

Thank you
Jason

This is not guaranteed, but I would plug those drives in and check File station if drives are seen. If not seen, remove them without any formatting etc.
You can then use USB docking station to copy data 5 times faster.
Let me know if data is seen.
