Terastation Pro II - Box Failure. Old drives into new box?
« on: December 04, 2008, 02:50:04 PM »
   

Hi have the Terastation PRO II box with 4x 1terabyte drives.  The box has errors and they are sending a replacement unit.  If I put the drives (with all my data) from the old box into the new one will this work automatically?

 

Or is there something I need to do?  I don't want to lose my data.

 

Many Thanks,

 

Ian

   More Info:  got the E04 message - can't load kernel.  called buffalo and they are sending a new unit.  is it as easy as taking the old 4 drives out and putting it into the new box?

Have you tried the TFTP boot?

if you search the forum for TFTP you will find a write up on how to do it along with a link to our FTP site for the software.
