    What to do if hot-swapping of drives fails on QNAP ES1686dc Network Storage Server?
    • T
      Tonya ParksAug 10, 2025
      If hot-swapping drives fails, log in to QES as administrator. Then go to Main Menu > Storage Manager > Storage > Disks, and locate the failed drive. Prepare a new hard drive with the same or larger capacity than the failed one. Remove the failed drive from the QNAP Network Storage Server, wait for 20 seconds (or until the NAS beeps twice), remove the drive from the tray, insert the new drive into the tray, and install it. The NAS will beep twice. Finally, go to Main Menu > Storage Manager > Storage Space.

    Why Qfinder Pro is unable to locate the QNAP ES1686dc during QES installation?

      Qfinder Pro may fail to locate the QNAP Network Storage Server during QES installation if the drives or data are faulty. To resolve this, power off the NAS, remove all drives, power it back on, and use Qfinder Pro to locate the NAS. Once found, reinsert the drives and continue with the QES installation.
