I'm about to build a new NAS. With my current NAS I just kind of threw drives at it as I aquired them (2x 2TB in RAID 1, a 4TB and a 6TB drive in pools by themselves, and 5 6TB drives in an external enclosure in RAID 5).

In the new build I have 3 10TB drives I'll be adding. I don't necessarily need to keep all the drives from the old build (I at least want the 5x 6TB drives but not externally) but what would be the best way to migrate the data to the new build? Any advice is appreciated.

Further info: Current build is FreeNAS and I'll probably keep with that or TrueNAS.
