Config:
HP ML310 G3 server - MS SBS 2003.
Array 1 (RAID 1) - 2x 80GB HDD's (C: drive), Basic Windows disk.
Array 2 (RAID 1) - 2x 160GB HDDS's (E: drive), Basic Windows disk.
PCI 2610SA array controller
Array 2 were originally 2x 80GB HDD's as well which I upgraded to 2X 160GB HDD's through the proper procedure regarding rebuilds etc.
How do I extend the 80GB Array 2 to 160GB now? Can I use ACU (Array Configuration Utility) from my bootable SmartStart ver.8 CD? Do you advise that I do the firmware first for this controller as well? Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Extend an Array safely...
PCI 2610SA array controller? where did you take this?
I think the reason why you don't see your controller is because your controller is not a smart array which are the only ones supported by that application....
but I see "Array 2 were originally 2x 80GB HDD's as well which I upgraded to 2X 160GB HDD's through the proper procedure regarding rebuilds etc."
you already updated the HDDs(in another ocassion) or Am I wrong?

Re: Extend an Array safely...
so right now if you want to update your HDDs again you need to followed your previous procedure
" Array 2 were originally 2x 80GB HDD's as well which I upgraded to 2X 160GB HDD's through the proper procedure regarding rebuilds etc. "
because ACU can not be used sorry I was thinking you had a smart array controller

Re: Extend an Array safely...
yes you can use diskpart to extend the size
I know you can not extend your C: using diskpart but there some other SW that lets you do that I have not tested yet
