Suppose I have created a Raid 5 with four hard drives and want to increase the storage later? Can I use four larger hard disks without further ado as with a normal nas or do I have to set up a completely new nas and the data will be deleted?

Question

Answer

You should be able to either create a new raid group or expand your already existing raid group. No data loss involved.
