Replacing the pair of 1.5Tb disks (Seagate Barracuda 7200 from Feb 2010) in a Synology DS209 with a pair of larger (WD Red NAS) 4Tb drives

 

New drives are incredibly quite compared to the 7year old Seagates. Taking a damn age to complete migration...

 

Took about 5hrs to 'RAID repair' the Seagate -> WD and then 3.5hrs for the WD -> WD 'RAID repair' and then some more hours (~5hrs???) to expand the ext3 volume to full capacity

Done
