i have a Sans Digital TR8U+ 8-bay case with (2) 3TB HDDs and (5) 1TB HDDs (space 10TB with 1.85TB of free space). i'm planning to replace all the 1TB HDDs with 3TB HDDs, any advice on how to do it? since any of the files are NOT duplicated, i think that i need to insert (1) 3TB HDD to the remaining bay, add to the pool, use the remove option on one of the 1TB HDD and wait to DrivePool to copy all the files, then repeat the process until all the (5) 1TB HDDs are replaced? how much time it will take just to replace one drive using a windows 7 64-bit pc with 16GB RAM and i7-2600 3.40GHz intel CPU when the PC is constanly using the pool?
