There's simply no way you can have a raid10 array get bigger just be swapping out one of the disks with a larger disk. All of them must get bigger for the array to grow. A RAID 10 is first a mirror, those two block devices must be the same size to be the same. And then to stripe, the mirrors must be the same size. So what you want to do is only workable by having all disks the same size.
