5. NAS Migration
You can migrate data and settings from your current NAS to another NAS model with minimal disruptions
by installing all the hard drives from the source NAS to the destination NAS. RAID conguration and other
settings are retained on the destination NAS after migration.
NAS Migration Requirements
You can only migrate drives and system settings to specic NAS models, depending on your source NAS. For
the list of NAS models compatible with direct NAS migration, see https://www.qnap.com/en/nas-migration.
Your device must meet the following requirements:
• The destination NAS must run on the same QuTS hero version as the source NAS (or later).
Important
Due to incompatibilities in le system, system migration between QTS NAS and QuTS hero NAS
is not supported.
Warning
Migrating drives between QTS NAS and QuTS hero NAS can cause data corruption.
• The destination NAS must have sucient free drive bays to accommodate all the drives that you are
migrating from the source NAS.
For NAS models that do not support NAS migration, see How to Migrate Data and Folder Permissions
between QTS and QuTS hero with HBS3.
Status and Setting Changes After NAS Migration
The status of NAS data and settings varies after migration.
Data and Settings After NAS Migration

Warning
To prevent data loss, back up and save
the encryption keys of encrypted shared
folders in a safe place. You can also
choose to decrypt shared folders before
migration.
