Tony, you are an Enabler!

Have you got it up and running yet? How did that process go for you?


It’s up and running, it was a piece of cake. I backed up the system configuration on the 412, shut it down, removed the drives, installed them in the same order in the new box and fired it up. Synology has a Migration Assistant app that launches when you start the new NAS, and it automatically restored all the settings from my old box. The whole process took about 20 minutes. Of course, that’s moving from a 4 bay to another 4 bay, both running the current version of the operating system. I think it gets a bit more complicated if you have different numbers of drives, say going from 2 to 4, or one with an older operating system.
