My venerable LS-W1 died. I'm amazed it lasted so long.
I'd like to buy a LS220DE and put the drives in there.
Does anyone know if the format or drive requirements are different?
Will initialisation insist on formatting the drives?
Or can I just slot them in and be good to go?
(I'm a Windows guy and I feel a bit lost in the Linux world).

Thanks

Ideally the disks need to be blanked before putting them into the new linkstation, it will format them once you begin the installation.
PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.
Having network issues? Drop me an email: info@interwebsireland.com and we will get it fixed!

Have i helped you? Buy me a coffee as a thanks!
