Expand Array
Select array to be expanded (Array 1 to Array 4) and then the number of disks in the
new array.
Removing a disk drive may cause data loss. Always make sure that you have
backed up the data of the affected array.
Ensure that new disk capacity is equal to or larger than current on-line
capacity. To expand an array. To expand disk capacity:
Connect new disk
Use Expand Array Menu to select the number of disks in the array
Go to the Edit Array Menu. The new capacity will appear in a new slice.
So if you have already set up Slice0, Slice1and Slice2, the new capacity
will form Slice3. If no slices have been formed before (i.e. there is only
one partition: Slice0), the new capacity will be in Slice1.
Expanding an array increases array capacity but data may sometimes be lost.
You are strongly advised to make a system backup before proceeding.
