Hello,

I would like to know if I currently have 3 hard drives in a raidz1 volume. Can I safely add a 4th drive without lossing my data.

If you need more information to help me, please let me know.

Thanks,

Mile

Nope. The only way to add another drive to a raidz1 or z2 is to back up your data, destroy and rebuild the volume, and restore your data.
