https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/adding-disk-to-array/m-p/4479027#M32335 Just trying to get my head arround how the array behaves when you add a disk. <BR /><BR />More disks in an array usually means better perormance. If I have a configured Raid 5 array with 4 disk using all the space with a single LUN, will adding a disk to array automatically cause the array to optimise the Logical drive across the new disk? (even if I dont extend the logical drive size)<BR /><BR />Cheers<BR /><BR />Michael Thu, 13 Aug 2009 11:51:49 GMT beovax 2009-08-13T11:51:49Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/adding-disk-to-array/m-p/4479027#M32335 Just trying to get my head arround how the array behaves when you add a disk. <BR /><BR />More disks in an array usually means better perormance.
