Would this be useful in upgrading to a bigger hard drive in a Synology has? Can I clone a smaller drive to a bigger drive and pop it back in? I imagine it's a bit more complicated than that.

I think you can just install larger hard drives one at a time in your NAS and let raid rebuild your database. Probably hella time consuming depending on how large your current drives are. Check your raid settings to be sure it can rebuild. If it were me, I'd grab a large external drive, put everything from the nas on it, and then start with fresh drives on the nas and repopulate from the usb drive…. This way gives you a backup as well…

i assume you can just use this as a docking station to access various drives even if you are not using the cloning function

Except when your library is larger than single drive capacity. Currently sitting at 36TB across RAID5 on a Qnap. (4 x 12TB).

I have 5 x 20TB waiting for a new home and it seems getting a new NAS is the only solution.

Well, you could get a 26 or 28 tb ext drive and that would get you most of the way. Also, much quicker to rebuild 10 tb than 36tb…..

Now, if it were me... And I'm sure I'm not the best example when it comes to doing anything. I would buy two more matching 20 TB drives, copy your data to those two, then use your original 4 drives to build a new array before copying your data back on to them.

Then, after you were done, you would have two spare drives for the future in case a drive ever failed.

But usually my antics best serve as an example of what not to do. 🙂

I have gone this route before with using a USB 3.0 do to SATA dock as a NAS/server expansion, they always end up going offline and requiring a restart or sometimes have data corruption issues with large/lengthy data transfers.

USB is just not made for this type of work.

I bought a similar drive off temu. It's what I needed. I didn't want to get a dedicated Nas and my pc is a Dell USFF PC. so I could only go external.
It's been running since April 2025. I do have a UPS. I think this machine has gone down once.
I only need it for plex and all my drives are less than 8tb. I don't care about data backup. It's just movies and TV shows. Everything important I have is backed up in various places online.
For under 100 dollars, it's better than a dedicated Nas.
Buy this only if you care about hard drive space and only hard drive space.
Transferring between drives on the same device is slow,
It's a USB device so it can just go offline.
Having +20tb of data without raid is risky as hell. I personally expect to have data corruption sooner or later. But again, it's just movies and TV shows. Backups of my physical media. So I don't care at all about data corruption.

No, there is no network port on this thing.

I have tried to replace a dead drive and rebuild. If you can wait 24/7 for several months.... So I second the idea of copying over to 1-2 external drives as temporary and wiping the NAS drives for a new array. Much much faster.
