JBOD over multiple disks

I have a RN102 that has been running X-Raid on a single 2TB disk for a while, now I want to expand the storage. I don't need redundancy, so I switched the volume to Flex-RAID (JBOD), intending to add a new disk and create a new volume on it.

Now when I added the second disk, and click System-Volumes and the new disk icon, the existing volume shows options to either add parity or expand volume. The manual says that JBOD only works on single disks, so I'm confused about what will happen. Is this a new feature since the manual was written? I'm on 6.1.4 firmware.
