everything went great with the fresh instal ! thank you IG-88 for all your pointers !

amazing, thanks for the pointers. If it works with the one empty disk, is there a way to restore my previous raid from the rest of the disks ? or is wipe and copy everything back in ?

Thanks IG-88 , I swapped a couple of hard drives over the years in the raid of 4 drives on raid 6, and I do have a backup of the entire thing. these are my drivers in use: Kernel driver in use: pcieport Kernel driver in use: xhci_hcd Kernel driver in use: ehci_hcd Kernel driver in use: pcieport Kernel driver in use: pcieport Kernel driver in use: ehci_hcd Kernel driver in use: ata_piix Kernel driver in use: ata_piix Kernel driver in use: r8169 as for the exact hardware I honestly dont recall the board and other than is a 2 core i3 intel processor.

Hey everybody, newbish here. Been running a custom build with DSM5.0 I set up 10 years ago ! Running great no issues , but some packages wont update anymore for obvious reasons. I'm thinking of upgrading the OS to 6.2.x but I'm truly confused about the process. Its been quite a while. I've read the FAQ's etc but cant find a clear path guide to upgrade from my 5.0 to 6.2.x. Would it even be worth the risk ? or should I just run as is until things just wont work anymore

The only thing I read about on the official Synology website is that this will happen when you reset the NAS, but you won't lose any data (although not guaranteed). Only the configuration and settings will be lost, but that shouldn't be a big issue. If you don't want to lose your data making a backup is highly recommended of course. Thanks R0KH, true. The update happened with no data loss but I had to re install packages and re configure all which wasnt a big deal.

Hi everybody I'm trying to install DSM 5.0 upgrading from Trantor 4.2 to GnoBoot 5.0. I have followed the instructions -Flash usb with gnoboot -boot using gnoboot.me -find the station using synology asistant. but at this point the assistant doesnt say "migratable" instead it says "Configuration lost" has anyone come by this ?? I'm hesitant to proceed.
