Excuse the repost... for some reason my previous posts can't be found
on the server.
Not sure if I'm just being stupid or what...
I've got a Windows 2003 Server. I have several 500gig hard drives
assembled into a software RAID5 array. This array works well.
I've just installed a new 500gig hard drive into this PC. It comes up
in the Disk Manager and I was able to convert it to a dynamic disk, but
I can't figure out how to add this drive to the array.
I was able to do this the last time I added a drive to the PC, but I do
not remember how.
How do you expand a RAID5 array after installing a new hard drive into
the system???
Also, a related question... How can you see how big a single partition
assigned to a RAID5 array is? How can I see what size to allocate on
the new drive to match othe existing drives in the array?
All help is appreciated!!!
