venith Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Hi all, I setup my nas and would like to copy my data from my external harddrives to it. The drives are being detected but as far as I found I can only set a new pool which would wipe the drive. Ideally I would prefer not to use my laptop to connect the harddrive and copy it over the network Quote
Sonic Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Short answer: no You'll need to resort to using SMB, NFS, or Rsync over the network to copy from the USB drive to your TrueNAS ZFS pool. See also: https://www.truenas.com/community/threads/is-it-possible-to-copy-data-from-external-usb-drive.115693/ 1 Quote
