I currently have a Snap Server 210 running GuardianOS 4.3.007 SP3. I've outgrown the unit and I was wondering if it is possible to replace the 2 x 500GB Hitachi Deskstar drives with 2 larger drives, like 2 x 1.5TB drives, which are around $125 ea.

Is there a guide to doing this? compatibility issues? Can the guardian OS be mirrored to the new drives, or does the OS live on a chip/in firmware.

I'm trying to wrap my brain around how it works and what is possible. I willing to experiment. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Thomas
