This method will work for any QNAP and RAID array level .Specifically on this video I will show you how tol upgrade from four x 1 TB drives to four x 4 TB drives, once the drives have been physically replaced and the RAID 5 array rebuilt, I will show you how to expand the RAID group and expand your storage pool as well to enable using the entire raid5 available storage once expanded to provide additional redundant raid protected space for your file backups, videos, pictures and business data.
