Upgrading The NAS Operating System
CAUTION: The upgrade is NOT a data-in-place upgrade but a reinstallation of the OS
partition. To avoid data loss you must take a backup of any internal disk drives or data
on external storage arrays before proceeding with the upgrade. Additionally, all
programs that were manually installed must be reinstalled. All Settings, such as Share
Configurations, must be reapplied after the upgrade reinstallation procedure is
complete.
NOTE: Ensure that the latest BIOS version is installed on your NAS system. You can
download the latest BIOS version from dell.com/support.
