Using a UPS
An uninterruptible power supply protects your ReadyNAS Pro, and can enable automatic
shut down in an orderly fashion when there is an interruption in power. Also, your
ReadyNAS Pro can operate at higher performance levels when it senses it is connected to
a UPS. The ReadyNAS Pro User Manual provides instructions on using a UPS.

Redundancy and Expansion
A one-disk device has no redundancy and provides no protection from a disk failure.
However, if and when you feel the need for redundancy, simply hot-add a new disk with at
least the capacity of the first disk (there’s no need to power off the ReadyNAS Pro).
Depending on the size of the disk, within a few hours, your data volume will be fully
redundant. The process occurs in the background, so access to the ReadyNAS Pro is not
interrupted. Additionally, as your storage requirement grows, you can hot add more disks
for “horizontal” expansion, or replace your disks with larger capacity ones, and X-RAID2
automatically and incrementally expands your storage “vertically.” X-RAID2 lets you do
this without reformatting your disks and shuffling your data back and forth.
