Hi All, I am relevantly new to the project, and here goes my first post. Hope it goes well I have installed the DS918+ a few months ago. Against all the warnings, I installed version DSM 6.2.3-25423 Everything was going great. I created a volume, good Installed some packages, good Drive in volume died, replaced drive, all was good (this happened twice) Now I face an issue which kind of scares me. An SSD which is not part of any volume is failing. I don't remember the setup process 100%. I think the DSM and all its packages are installed on the drive that was connected during setup. Please correct me if I'm wrong. This is the drive that is now failing. Is it possible to replace this drive without loosing all data? Like, can I introduce a "HOT SPARE" to replace this drive or is a complete reinstall required? I don't remember the exact hardware spec at the time of writing this. If necessary I will go look it up. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for reading.
