ED500 volume expansion challenge
Greetings,
I added another 6TBG drive to my ED500. There was already 3 x 6TB drives in an X-RAID volume.
In the console, it showed the 4th drive with a green light, and then started to re-sync the volume.
After 72 hours, the re-sync was completed, but the light in the console went dark, and the volume did not expand.
I've tried rebooting, but that does not help.
Any ideas of what else to try?
Thanks,
Robert
Update, I rebooted again, and found that i could format the one drive. I did that and it is re-syncing now with 173 hours to go.
Wish me luck!
