Building new NAS Server

[iankearns]

I am looking to retire my older FreeNAS server running FreeNAS-9.2.1.7-RELEASE-x64 (fdbe9a0 with a new custom build on a Gigabyte A320M-H motherboard and an AMD Rizen CPU, 16Gb DDR4 memory and rack mounted case. I will install the latest version of FreeNas available but rather than copy data across (which was my original plan in my other thread) I am thinking just to transfer or consolidate the drives from my retired server along with those from my second server into this new build.

If I transplant the drives (which are not RAID'd) then will the newer FreeNAS build import them or is there any issues to be aware from?

Doing it this way means I can bring the 7 drives into one chassis and then reorganise the data between the drives without going from server to server.

Why would you want to do that?

If I transplant the drives (which are not RAID'd)

What do you mean, not RAID? Please show the output of zpool status inside code tags, [CODE] like this [/CODE]
That should give some data like this to look at:
