billis777 2 Posted July 8 Copy the pool folder from individual hdds, or use the drivepool software to remove the hdds while moving the pool. Should i do 1 hdd at a time or all of them at the same time? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1 Umfriend 100 Posted July 8 Use DP. Add as many HDD as you can. Remove one by one. You can do more at one time but it is a serial process anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Umfriend 100 Posted July 8 You can also use placement limiters I think. Never tried it myself. The advantage would be that when you remove a drive, the files won't be placed on other drives that you would remove thereafter. Requires rebalancing I would think.

0 billis777 2 Posted July 9 Thanks for the info umfriend. Does it matter what size the hdds are when moving the drivepool? I read in other posts that it does but cannot understand why. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Christopher (Drashna) 608 Posted July 10 No, it doesn't. However, it may be easiest to remove the smallest drives first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
