Hi;
I have been playing with FreeNAS for a little while using 3 old HDDs of varying makes and sizes. I have now acquired the actual Hard Drives for my working NAS and need some advice on making the swap.
It took me ages to get the existing shares working on my existing setup with my mixed OS network but there is nothing on the existing test setup that I haven't got elsewhere so the maintaining the existing data is not a problem.
Should I:
1. Start from scratch using 8.3.0 (New OS / New Hard Drives).
2. Delete the existing HDDs and swap them for the new ones - if so how do I do this?
Thanks
