Hi,
I have a FreeNAS box which is a backup only box. It has 5x 6tb WD Red drives in it. I just bought 3 more 6tb WD reds (still need to test it).
All this box does is receive Rsync transfers from my main FreeNAS box on a timed basis.
What is the best way to proceed?
Ideally I would like to destroy the 5 drive volume & make it an 8 drive volume. Then have the Rsync data just recreate everything over a few weeks.
Can that be done & still have the CIFS shares get automatically recreated? Or when I destroy the volume does that break everything?
Thanks,
Rich
