Hello,
we own an areca 1210 and currently have a RAID5 with 4x250GB. As
disk space
is low we'd like to replace it with 4x1000GB.
We already found a supported disk, hotpluggable, etc.
Now after subsequently replacing the drives how can we expand the
RAID set
to a net of 3TB (the controller does support sets that large). I
scanned
the manual and FAQ at areca but couldn't find any pointer on how we
would
go about that.
Anyone been there done that?
Whatever you decide to do...
Do a full backup first!
Seriously, rent a tape drive for the duration of the process if you
have to, but don't try to wing-it without a backup.
