What to do if failed drives need to be hot-swapped in QNAP Computer Hardware?
- JJohn RodriguezAug 8, 2025
To hot-swap failed drives, log on to QTS, then navigate to Main Menu > Storage & Snapshots > Storage > Disks/VJBOD. Find the failed drive, and prepare a new hard drive that has the same or larger capacity. Remove the failed drive from the device, wait for about 20 seconds (or until you hear two beeps), then remove it from the tray. Insert the new drive into the tray, install it, and check that the status is Rebuilding.
