Hello misc!

I want to replace my two 2TB hdd, joined in raid1.

I have two 4TB drives, and I want to replace smaller drives with them.

it wouldn't be a problem, if i had some spare sata ports, but in my pc i have only one left.

So, I can attach only one of this 4 tb drives at the same time.


I think, maybe I can attach new 4 tb drive to old raid as a third volume, wait for it "repair",

and then remove 2 tb drives, add one more 4 tb and "repair" raid again.

I don't know, will this operation actually grow my partition, or it is a bad idea from the beginning?


Alternate, can i create raid 1 volume from just one drive, rsync files between raids and after

add another disk?
