Synology DS1522+ Storage Expansion Fix (Only Real Experts Apply)
Budget: $20 – $40 USD
I need a Synology expert who can properly add and extend my new 8TB hard drive into my existing Storage Pool 1 without creating a new pool.
A previous attempt created Storage Pool 2 by mistake, and I need someone who knows exactly how to fix this safely.
My Synology is currently full, and I cannot continue working until this issue is fixed.
Important Requirements (Please Read Before Applying)
Only apply if you fully understand Synology DSM, Storage Manager, SHR/RAID, and drive expansion.
In your first message, you must answer these questions clearly:
1. Do you fully understand the issue?
Explain in your own words what problem I’m facing.
2. What is your step-by-step solution?
Tell me exactly how you would add the new 8TB drive to extend Storage Pool 1 safely.
(Do NOT write general answers like “I will fix it.” I need real steps.)
3. How long will it take?
Tell me:
How many minutes the setup will take
How long the rebuild/expansion usually takes on DS1522+ with 8TB drives
4. Are you 100% confident you can do this without data loss?
Yes/No — and explain why.
5. What tools do you use to assist the setup?
For example: remote access tools like AnyDesk, your Synology experience, etc.
If you do not answer these questions clearly, your application will be ignored.
