Hi all,
I have an AS-304T, first bay 4 TB HD third bay 4 TB HD, no Raid configured as single disks My PSU malfunctioned and I ordered a Nimbustor AS5304T.
When I check the documentation on the website, it says turn off old NAS, put the HDs in the new NAS and all should be fine. Well does not seem to work.
I then initialized the new NAS with another HD and tried to put the old HDs in. They show up in the disk management but as inactive.
What do I need to do to keep using the old disks? The documentation does not say sadly.
I might add i am not linux savy and only have a basic unterstanding of this stuff, so please talk to me like to an idiot, just a bit slower if you have any advice;D

I did the same before, and it worked. I guess your old NAS ADM version might be too old. I'll suggest you to send a support request to asustor directly. They should be able to check it remotely. https://support.asustor.com/

Same here: my "old" 5110T died two years ago and was out of warranty. I then bought a 6210T and pulled the drives from 5110T and put them in EXACTLY THE SAME ORDER in the new 6210T. I started the NAS up and could literally login with my old username/pw and had everything working as if nothing happened. I can't even remember that my RAID had to be rebuild, but I might be wrong in this.
Hope this helps.
