Simple hardware maintenance
Storage management
Inspect storage capacity, volumes, and drive health. Accelerate drive performance with SSD caching, and increase NAS reliability with hot spare drives.
Simple drive servicing
Rotate old drives or increase capacity without degrading the storage pool by cloning them to spare drives. Use Auto Repair to rebuild arrays when old drives are replaced without accessing DiskStation Manager. For a completely hands-off approach, Auto Drive Replacement will clone failing drives to pre-installed hot spares.
Rapid RAID repair
Fast Repair significantly reduces repair time of degraded arrays while incurring less wear and tear on drives by rebuilding only the used portion of a RAID array. No matter if you are using common RAID configurations or RAID F1 to prevent simultaneous SSD failure, your systems will be back to peak performance in a matter of moments.
