2.6 System Migration
System migration allows existing QNAP NAS users to upgrade your NAS to another new QNAP NAS
model without the need to transfer the data or reconfigure the system. You only need to install the
original hard disk drives (HDD) on the new NAS following its original HDD order and restart the NAS.
Due to different hardware design, the NAS will automatically check if a firmware update is required
before system migration. After the migration has finished, all the settings and data will be kept and
applied to the new NAS.
The following table shows the NAS models which support system migration.

The destination should contain enough drive bays to house the number of hard disk drives in
the disk volume of the source NAS.
SS-x39 series supports only 2.5-inch HDD.
