so i just bought 4 new drives (3tb each). I'm looking to use 3 for storage and the 1 for parity. 9tb usage
anyway i currently have a 3 drive setup (1tb) each. 2 for storage and 1 for parity. 2tb usage
i know (or i think i know) i can upgrade each disk 1 at a time from the 1tb drives to the 3tb drives. but can i add a disk at this time as well? or do i need to create a new raid altogether?
ie
1tb a,b,c
3tb 1,2,3,4
replace a with 1, b with 2, c with 3, and add 4
