Expand RAID 5 Array

William Glidden — Mon, 01 May 2006 21:01:41 GMT

How do I add another hot-pluggable drive to a 3-drive RAID 5 array on an ML 350 G3 server running Windows SBS 2003 SP1? The drive array is currently a single partition and I wish to make that partition larger. Is it just a matter of plugging the new drive in and configuring in Windows or is there someting to do in BIOS setup too?
