https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/upgrading-raid-5/m-p/3090445#M9897 Hi!<BR /><BR />I have 3 disks of 16 Gb on a LC2000 in RAID5 config. I'm going to buy 3 more disks and I want to upgrade my space. Is there a way to do this smoothly? Like, remove 1 disk of 16 and put a bigger one in is place and then remove other, and other until replace them all? Leting, of course, in between the Rebuild of information!<BR /><BR />If not, how can I do this with the minimal problems for my system?
