Which hard drives are suitable for TNAS?

The number of hard drives required depends on your specific needs; however, providing you install at least one hard drive, your TNAS device will function normally. There are many different TNAS models, divided into several types, with 1, 2, 4, 5, or 8 bays. The choice of model dictates the maximum number of hard drives that can be installed: the number cannot exceed the maximum number of bays, although more hard drives can be added later if needed. RAID migration or expansion of the original array can also be carried out without any impact on the original data. ...
Why does my TNAS device not go into hibernation?

If your hard drives remain idle for a preset length of time, they will go into hibernation. However, some conditions (including volume status, services, and applications) will stop your TNAS device from entering hibernation mode or waking up hard drives from hibernation from time to time. For a newly installed TOS, it will take about 24 to 48 hours for the Btrfs file system to complete the logging and balance operations in its background, while for the EXT 4 file system, it will take about 12 to 24 hours to complete, during which time the hard drives cannot hibernate. The actual time required depends on the hard disk capacity. If you have copied a large number of files to TNAS, it will take longer to log and balance. To learn more about logging and balance, please visit the website https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Btrfs During hibernation of the hard drive, the hard drive indicator will be always on; To confirm whether the hard disk is in hibernation mode, please touch the main body of the device with your hand. If you don't feel any vibration, the hard drive may already be in hibernation. ...
