The most frustrating part is the five 16TB disks in the current NAS will not be usable with the new NAS unless I create a second storage pool. Once the data is migrated off, I’ll have to try and sell the drives.

Home lab rebuild was a mixed bag. Everything went well except the Synology upgrade. Their “just swap the disks” migration is half-baked. As a result, I’ll have to buy more disks and do a live migration, adding cost and time. Bleh.
