Hey John
thanks for the response and the link
i've read the link but i'm a little confused
So, Do you insert the spare disk at the same time as the Original array is in?
Does it also mean i need to purcahse a 5 bay nas to get this done? I'm happy to do so if this is the case i just need to make certain i make the correct initial purchase, i'd hate to buy a 4 bay only to find out i need a 5 or 6 bay to get this going.
Thanks
Matt
