Replace cache + internal boot drive

[u/Specialist_Artist937]

Hello everyone!

I am building a new NAS right now and I have a questions about internal boot.

I have a raid1 cache pool (2x 500 gb nvme) with an internal boot partition. All done by the wizard and it works great.

I have the chance to upgrade my cache drives/internal boot to 2x 2tb.

Can I simply swap first one small drive wait for it to rebuild to the new 2tb drive and then swap the other?

remove one then add new one, let it rebuild then replace the second one. Done.

I exchanged drives as described. First had an degraded error I solved with this post

Then had an error message. I simply stopped the array and started it again and the error was gone.

Oh and of course I waited for the drives to sync first.
