DESCRIPTION
Using
unallocated disk
space You can add more storage space to a volume if there is still some space unallocated on the
same disk group.
Adding disks You can add one or more disks to a JBOD, RAID 1 or RAID 5.
The hard disk you want to add must have capacity equal to or greater than the smallest
disk in the volume or disk group.
Replacing with
larger disks You can replace smaller disks in a RAID 1, RAID 5, or RAID 6 with larger disks.
Replace disks one-by-one.
Replace the smallest disk in the volume or disk group first.
After replacing a disk, you must use the Internal Storage screen’s Manage link to repair
the volume.
Wait for the repair process to complete before you replace another disk.
