You can insert the disk and create a volume on it. That doesn't touch the current disk.

the data of the first hard disk remain even if I wanted to activate RAID 1?

If your current volume is capable to be extended to a 2 disk raid 1 array, the data will remain. But when you have to create a new volume to do so, the data will be lost.BTW, if your data is valuable, you should have a backup. A disk is a fragile, mechanical device, and it *will die* some day.

You can select your current volume, and then click edit, it should allow you to extend the BASIC volume to the RAID1 with another disk.1

What model of the disk are you using?
After unplug the second disk, Can you access the NAS
Turn off the power and plug in the disk then power up the NAS will it work?0 -
I have put a second hard drive in my nas. I can see it listed under disks, but I don't know how to utilize it. There is no way to share the drive or format it. Can someone help? I don't want to do too much because I don't want to lose data on my first drive.
I don't see it listed here.
But it is listed here.
Thanks.0 -
