I have a problem with my Linkstation LS/QVL 4-bay NAS where the NAS self power off after a few minutes (sometimes a few hours).
The Linkstation is currently on RAID 5 with 4 HDD, 2TB each.
I can get a used Terastation Pro II TS-HTGL/R5 sold online.
Can I move all 4 HDDs from Linkstation to Terastation? Will it automatically detect the RAID 5 and keep the data intact? What should I do to achieve that?
-
this is not possible
the old TS can only use 2TB per disc

Open SSH on your LS-QVL and check the SMART status of the discs

Yeah I's say the TS-HTGL is too old to be worthwhile,
I'd suggest switching the switch on the back from AUTO to MANUAL. It might just be shutting off when idle, at least if I remember how that works correctly.

Thank you for the answer! Before I try the hard way (SSH, check SMART status, etc), what if I find another used LS-QVL and insert all the current HDDs to the second LS? Any extra steps to make sure the data in RAID5 is intact?

Thank you! The switch is currently on Manual.

Yes, you can use all discs on the right place in a new nas
i had never a demaged nas.
allways i have demaged discs and one time a demaged power supply
your nas will shut down if the raid is demaged

Hi oxygen8,
I had a chance to study your website and the instruction:
* I failed to enable ssh access using the GUI tool (I can execute all steps without error, but somehow got ssh "connection refused"), so I tried the hard way below.
* I tried to use the command line tool, but for some reason I failed to change the sshd_config. I tried to "cat /etc/sshd_config" and the config remains unchanged
* I use the command line tool to do smartctl command on all HDDs and I don't see anything strange from the output. The output seems truncated though
* What should I do next? Should I run the smartctl test? I didn't do it because the NAS is in the checking mode.
BTW, when the NAS is still powered on, it's running some kind of diagnostic mode with blinking purple LED. The NAS page says "RAID Array 1 | Status: Checking ( 2.0 % Complete)".
I never see it complete 100% because after a while (few minutes, sometimes few hours) it powers off by itself.
Thanks a lot!

you are 6x higher
you have nit fixed the load cycle bug

the disc should be replaced

I'll get the disc replaced and fix the bug.
Thank you for all the helpful responses. You guys rock!

Before I have a chance to replace the disc, the xfs is broken and the NAS is trying to repair it:
xfs_repair /dev/disk1_6
The xfs_repair runs for a long time and after awhile the NAS is powered off by itself so it never complete the repair.
I have to fix the problem of auto power off. Should I try to replace the power brick?
-
remove the demaged disc and your nas shoud be stable
-
Removed sdc disc and started the NAS. It's currently running xfs_repair automatically. I'll report the outcome. Thanks!
-
The xfs_repair ran for 2 days and the back fan failed & stop working. This happened twice...
Is there a way to repair the xfs? I just need the data back.

You know, I think I'd probably replace that one too after your rebuild.
