Migration to DSM 7.x

[bobby1701]

Hi there,

I wonder if someone could help. I am stuck on step 1. 

I had stable DSM6.2 system which reset so I had to start with a new USB with JUN 1.3b. Long story short, I ran in to connectivity problems reported elsewhere (with DSM 6.2.4-25556).

I have been told to update to 7.x

 

For this, given I have 43TB (27TB of data) in a 4 disk array, I want to be cautious with the steps.

From page 1 of this thread :

 

 I cannot find the 0.8 version loader when I go to "stable" GitHub page. All I see is the latest v0.9.4.9 version.

 

So my questions:

1. Where do I get the stable 0.8 version? Is 0.8 the best option?

2. I had a DS3617xs and want to migrate to DS3622xs+, so shall I go straight to DSM 7.1.0-42661?

3. Are there likely any risks to my data such as need to delete all my array in this migration process? If so, what shall I do? How can I avoid data loss?

 

Appreciate any and all help

Thank you.
