Re: Extend RAID1 with more disks
thanks for your fast reply.
The server I want to extend is a ML370.
I would like also to ask you if this server with 2 harddisks with RAID1 it would be possible to move to a RAID5 adding new disks.
What do you think?
thanks in advance
CARLOS

Re: Extend RAID1 with more disks
In case of any problem while using the Array Configuration Utility you can user guide for ACU, from the following site.
