You can add additional disks to an existing RAID1, RAID5, and RAID10 array. As
long as the array is clean, these disks then become spares.
When adding disks to an array, we recommend that you use the same model of disk
with the same capacity. The new disk must have at least the same capacity of the
smallest disk currently in the array. With the exception of a JBOD, RAIDs are
configured to use the maximum of the smallest disk capacity in the array for each
additional disk in the array. For example, if you install two, 250 GB disks and one 500
GB disk, the total capacity is 750 GB.
To add a disk to an array:
If not already installed in the chassis, insert the disk into the NSS.
From the Manager Menu, click Storage
