Title: How to expand volume
Post by: rgilld on December 31, 2009, 04:41:45 AM

Hi,

I orginally had two 500GB drive set-up as RAID1. I recently swapped each 500GB drive with a 1TB drive one at a time and allowed the RAID to resync. However, the size of my RAID1 volume is only 500MB. How do I wxpand this to 1TB without formatting and losing my data?

Thanks

Although the DNS O/S is Linux-based, which may natively offer such capabilities (not sure), it is currently not possible with the current DNS configuration parameters. 

You will have to reformat the HDD's in the DNS if you want the full capacity of your HDD's in a single RAID1 container. 

HTH,
