Re: how to add additional HDD to RAID1-mirror
Not as spare. I like all HDDs to have data on them. This way as long as total # of working HDDs minus x number of crash HDDs is =>2 than, I am okkk
Thanks |

Re: how to add additional HDD to RAID1-mirror
Your only option (if you don't like RAID1 + 1 hot-spare) would be to migrate to RAID5. This would give you a total of 2x500GB usable space.
Note: make sure your NAS canot be brought down during migration (power loss, ...). This would destroy your data. /Falk |
