Question about Synology DS920+

Due to a power failure, my Synology DS415+ has broken (no longer starts). As it is very old, it is OK for me to buy a new one. Can I simply plug the 4 HDs from the DS415+ into the DS 920+ and the data is there again? Backup is available, but of course that would be much easier....

Helpful answer
In principle, it should be possible to switch from a DS415+ to a DS920+ by changing the HDs. Synology offers a hard drive migration feature that works with certain Diskstation combinations, such as this one.

Read through the quite detailed tutorial from Synology https://www.synology.com/de-de...

So, I got the 920, installed the disks and everything works. On start-up, I got the message that disks were installed that were previously in a 415+, I could then choose whether I wanted to migrate or set up again, I chose migrate and after about 15 minutes almost everything was back as before. Accounts, settings etc. were all there.
