Hi

I have a client that uses Freenas 9.xxx. He have a 80GB HDD that needs to be replaced for a 320GB drive.
I have cloned the drives, but the 320GB drive have a 80GB partition, No problem there, it was expected.
But how to resize the partition to get the full space?
I have tried with Easeus Partition Master and it can't resize it.
Do you know/recomend any other software to do that?
Thank you

that is not the way it works. add a nother bunch of drives to the freenas system, move the data from there. and read the manual. freenas is an appliance.

I'd add that "Freenas 9.xxx" is not very useful at all--there's a world of difference between 9.0 and 9.3. If it's prior to 9.3 and the disk is UFS-formatted, you might be able to find a way to do this. If the disk is ZFS-formatted, doing it inside FreeNAS (or perhaps elsewhere in FreeBSD) is going to be your only option.
