https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/replacing-a-2sl-with-a-2dh/m-p/2489982#M1148 Hi, <BR />I have a netware server with a Smart-2SL and 3 x 9G hotplug drives and I need to add an extra one. The 3 current drives are configured for RAID5 and hold the entire Netware system, ie. Dos, SYS &amp; Vol1. <BR />How can I add the 4th drive and expand the array? I also have a spare 2DH here, could I use that sucessfully to add the drive ? <BR />Could I expand the array online with the 2DH controller? <BR />Thanks -Mark Tue, 06 Feb 2001 00:00:00 GMT Ayman Altounji 2001-02-06T00:00:00Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/replacing-a-2sl-with-a-2dh/m-p/2489982#M1148 Hi, <BR />I have a netware server with a Smart-2SL and 3 x 9G hotplug drives and I need to add an extra one.
