raid5 and adding disks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Is it possible to add a disk to a raid5 array after
that array has been created? 

I just bought 3 disks that I plan to turn into a raid5
array, and I have two more disks in a raid0 array that
I'd like to add to it. The problem is that the raid0
has 6months worth of data on it, and I have no where
else to stick that data while building the raid5
array. I was hoping I could build a 3 disk raid5
array, move the files over, then add the 2 remaining
disks to the raid5 array.

Thanks, Andrew
