Re: How to migrate from RAID 1 to RAID 5?
For creation of Raid 1 there is a need for only 2 disks whereas for Raid 5 you need atleast 3 disks. With your current configuration you need additional 3 disks for Raid 5. The other option would be to add another disk and make the whole thing a Raid 5 by doing this you will be losing the existing data/OS which will require a OS load and data restore.
Hope this helps

Re: How to migrate from RAID 1 to RAID 5?
Thank for your replying.
I have made it successfully without loosing data.
Here are the headlines of my steps:
1. Adding physical disk to the current (2 disks in RAID 1).
2. Extending the Array from the Array Configuration Utility (ACU) of HP system tools.
By doing it, I was asked to migrate to RAID 5.
3. After migrating process completed, I extend the partition from the Microsoft tools (Disk Management).
At the end; partition E: was extend with the additional disk.
Anyway, I wish to thank you for the replying.
