This chapter describes how to reformat, add, and replace disks in your ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system. For information about configuring disks on your storage system, see the ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Manual, which is available at netgear.com/support/product/ReadyNAS_OS_6. This chapter includes the following topics: •...
ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems Disk Trays All systems except the EDA 500 use standard disk trays. The EDA 500 comes with its own special disk trays. This section describes both the standard and EDA 500 disk trays. Note For some disks, first remove the plastic mounting bracket from the disk tray before you mount the disk to the disk tray.
Use only supported SATA hard disk drives (HDD) or solid state drives (SSD) in your ReadyNAS storage system. If you use disks that are not supported, NETGEAR technical support will not provide assistance. For a list of supported disks, see the NETGEAR Hardware Compatibility List at netgear.com/readynas-hcl.
ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems Previously Formatted Disks This section describes how to use previously formatted disks with your ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system. Previously formatted disks must appear on the NETGEAR Hardware Compatibility List, which is available netgear.com/readynas-hcl. Reformat Previously Formatted Disks If you want to use disks that were previously formatted for an operating system other than ReadyNAS OS 6 (for example, Windows or RAIDiator), you must reformat the disks.
ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems Migrate a Volume You can migrate a volume from one ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system to another, as long as you migrate every disk in the volume. For example, if you want to migrate a volume that contains two disks, you must add both disks to the new system.

ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems Press the disk tray release latch. The disk tray handle pops out. Pull out the disk tray. Separate the mounting bracket from the disk tray: Press and hold the disk tray release latch. While holding the release latch, use your other hand to pull out one end of the mounting bracket and then the other until the ends extend slightly past the disk tray.
Page 168
ReadyNAS OS 6 Desktop Storage Systems Make sure that the ends of the mounting bracket are even with each other. Slide the bracket down the disk tray, keeping both sides of the bracket even with each other. The mounting bracket stops when it hits the bracket lock. The bracket lock prevents the mounting bracket from sliding all the way off the disk tray.
