I bought 2 of these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/194910024856 to replace the 2 mfi(4)'s Hopefully I can just move the controllers and TrueNAS 13.0-RELEASE will just notice them. and pick up the new 8T disks. let me know if I'm setting myself up for failure. -- Larry Rosenman http://www.lerctr.org/~ler Phone: +1 214-642-9640 E-Mail: ler@lerctr.org US Mail: 5708 Sabbia Dr, Round Rock, TX 78665-2106
