Combine logical RAID drives on ML350 G4
What I'd like to do is combine, if possible, the logical 10GB drive/partition and the 23GB drive/partition. The data on the D drive can be moved so that's not an issue. But can the HP software combine this somehow? I think the problem is that this was done with the HP software so to the operating system (Windows 2003) the drives looks like 2 physical drives.

Re: Combine logical RAID drives on ML350 G4
I guess an idea is to buy 2 bigger drives as you mention and replace them one at a time. Would this then make it possible for the RAID 1 to be bigger without having to backup and restore the data? I'm just unclear how to change the logical RAID configuration without having to wipe out everything from scratch.

Re: Combine logical RAID drives on ML350 G4
I do not believe there is really much that can be done on that end. The best option may be to do what has already been recommended and back/restore onto the newer array config.

Re: Combine logical RAID drives on ML350 G4
THere are 2 33GB physical drives for instance now making up the 2 RAID 1s.
10GB RAID 1
23GB RAID 1
Can I delete the 23GB RAID 1 in the HP utility and then expand the first 10GB RAID to include the 23GB without losing any data? After this all I would need is a 3rd party utility that can expand the system partition in Windows 2003.
