ML350 G3 Raid5 Upgrade/Boot order
ML350 G3
Raid 5 Array of 3 18.2GB Hard Drives on Smart Array 641 controller.
Obviously 18.2GB in a RAID 5 is not a lot of storage space. I have 3 72.8GB Hard Drives I would like to replace the 18.2GBs with.
How do I migrate/transfer/copy the partitions/data from the old array/logical drive to the new array/logical drive and boot from the new array?
Thanks!

You can put your three 18G's back in and create another array later if you want to.
No backup or restore, just sit back and let the array controller do its work.

Re: ML350 G3 Raid5 Upgrade/Boot order
The array controller says I have a 33GB logical drive (18GB in RAID5). It says I can't create another logical drive because there are no physical drives to create one on. And I can't resize any partitions Windows and Partition Commander only see the 33GB logical drive.
Any ideas?

Re: ML350 G3 Raid5 Upgrade/Boot order
I was able to boot to SmartStart and in the ACU it gave me a place to extend the size of the 33GB logical drive to 138GB... Now all I gotta do is resize/expand the partitions and I'll be ready to go!!
Thanks again!

Re: ML350 G3 Raid5 Upgrade/Boot order
After extended logical disk size, you can see disk size enlarge in disk manager.
You can use Microsoft free tools --"diskpart.exe" to extend your partition size.
But if you have only one logicak disk to spile two partitions, you can only extend 2rd partition size not 1st.
BTW, "diskpart.exe" can't extend disk C.
