test4321 6 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Did anybody try to migrate from Xpenology to Synology? I've got 1621+ in the mail and thinking of just plunking my hard drives from Xpenology right into DS1621+. I think it should be ok, I'm just thinking if I need to back up any type of configuration / Moments / Drive data just in case? Or should I just do a fresh install?

1 flyride 634 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Migration install should work. You should back up everything before doing any type of migration. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

0 test4321 6 Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Migration went fine! No issues! Everything needs to get updated so you have to wait at least 30-40 minutes for startup. Now I have to figure out how to add my Brocade 1020 to DS1621+ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
0 Clarence D Harnden 0 Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Since Xpenology runs the actual version of DSM, Synology should be migrated in the same way as Synology. The special XPE Sauce is in a bootloader that resides on a USB flash drive (or other boot device). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
