I have one question:
I knew that if want add a disk to an array, it must destory the array and rebulid it.
but if I only want to add a disk to this array, and this disk only be a spare disk.
shoud I add the disk without destory the array?
thanks.

Nope. Covered before. To add a disk to a RAID array, you would have to
destroy the array and rebuild with the new disk.

Hi ALL,

I have a question about SSA Raid:

Env:

F50 Server
3 SSA disks 4.5gb (pdisk0, pdisk1 and pdisk2). These disks are configured to
hdisk4 RAID 5.

Question:

Can I add one disk 9.1gb to this RAID?

Thanks,

Ivo Bernardino
