Replacing physical drives in a pool

If you have a pool built with one or more physical drives that are not the same size, or you simply want to upgrade the pool with new, larger drives, you can replace the physical drives in the pool.

Attention: During the rebuild operation, if another physical drive fails, there is the risk of losing data.

  1. Replace the physical drive in the server or enclosure with a larger physical drive.

  2. Wait for the rebuild to complete.

  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you have replaced all the smaller physical drives in the pool.
