Hi, we do not recommend this approach, as reducing the number of hard drives will trigger missing warnings in the array system. While this will not immediately affect usage, there is indeed a risk of data loss. If another hard drive fails in the future, data may be permanently lost and irretrievable.
Therefore, if you absolutely need to reduce the number of hard drives in the array, please ensure that you back up your data first and consider reconfiguring the array to ensure data safety.
Thank you for your support of TerraMaster!
