No, it is just used for storage.  I am booting off a separate SSD

Hi Andrew, are you using the raid for boot and root?

Hey has anyone run into issues with trying to grow a Linux software raid?  I’ve 
just finished syncing all of my data from 3x2TB (in raid 5) to 3x3TB (still 
raid 5).  The raid array should show a capacity of approx. 5.5 TB, but instead 
shows only 4.  I’ve tried re running the mdadm –grow command but with no 
success.  Is there are a hard limit to the size of the array in Linux?

 
I should mention that each of these drives are formatted as GTP drives, with 1 
partition of type FD that consumes the entire 2.79 TB of space on each drive.

 
I’ve been using he instructions located at 
https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Growing#Expanding_existing_partitions if 
anyone is curious to what I’ve done so far
