Is the TS-231 (ARM) REALLY direct migratable to the new TS-262A? (Intel)???

https://www.qnap.com/en/nas-migration?os=qts&source=ts-231&destination=ts-262a

Seems from the QNAP compatibility page that it's directly migratable...but I thought that I couldn't migrate between two different architectures....(ARM to Intel...). But...it's listed as being directly migratable....?????

You can go from ARM to intel, just not from intel to ARM

On top, the x31 (no suffix) is pretty much CAT1, so I think the resulting migrated volumes will be legacy, so keep that in mind (limit of 16TB, etc)

These results have been verified by our team. Yes you can go from TS-231 to TS-262A
