NVX Business Edition Max Capacity
I have an NVX Business Edition with four 2TB drives in it. I want to replace all of them with 3TB drives. Will the NVX handle the 12TB capacity and if so can I expand the array the usual way, one dive...
There is an growth limit to expansion - no more then 8 TiB greater than your starting point (which is the volume size at your last factory reset, or your initial install). If there is a chance you will hit that, then it is good to start fresh.
Also, if you install all the new drives at once, if there is a problem you can power down and reinstall the old ones.
For most folks xraid2 is the better choice.
BTW, upgrade your firmware before you begin. There are bugs in NVX expansion, you can see the details if you search the forum.
