Move from 6x2TB to 6x3TB
I'm not sure my current setup is okay to xraid my way onto 3TB drives (WD RED WD30EFRX). I don't remember, but I fear my current file system cannot handle larger drives than I have. What informatio...
Oh okay, so since I'm on 4.2.19 I should be fine?
Well, the disks I started off with in this Pro Pioneer was 3x2TB WD2002FYPS-01U1B0. I later bought a 4th one (01U1B1) and finally the two last ones (02W3B0). I don't remember what firmware I was running at the beginning or when expanding though.
I have X-RAID2 single redundancy.
I found this in the volume.log:
/dev/md0 ext3
and
/dev/c/c ext4
Am I guessing right that the system in the NAS is still running on ext3, but the volume with all my files has been converted to ext4 and there's no (practical) limit to the size of the volume anymore there?
