"Replace disk with larger one"

Post by ecarsontc »

Hello All,

Newbie here - Using NAS AS6202T, RAID 1 with 2 3TB Disks.
I have just replaced one WD Red 3TB disk with another, with the goal of storing one offsite as a potential backup.
All gone well (following a restart) except now getting message "Please replace the disk with a larger one" for Disk 1 (the one I replaced)
Any ideas on this?
With thanks in advance,
Toby

Is the new drive exactly the same model as the originals? There have been more than one model of WD Red so it's possible that the new one might have a marginally lower capacity.
