Re: Expansion RAID on Smartarray B140i
Hello,
Please follow the below documents.
HPE ProLiant DL180 Generation9 (Gen9) ( Page No 6)
https://h20195.www2.hpe.com/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=c04375610#
HPE Dynamic Smart Array B140i RAID Controller ( Page no 20)

Adding drives
You can add hard drives to a system at any time if you do not exceed the maximum number of drives that the controller supports. You can then build a new array from the added drives.If the hard drives that you intend to add to the system are configured into logical drives, you must meet certain conditions before adding the hard drives to the system. For more information, see "Moving hard drives and arrays
(on page 20)."
NOTE: You should have the complete data backup before doing this activity or add any hard drive in the existing logical drive.
As well as server performance will be slow while complete this activity
