ReadyNAS 312 Vertical Expansion - First Time

Just manually triggered the RAID array to expand to use the additional space on the disks. Once this is complete the volume should then expand.

Unfortunately, very little except giving him my security code, and verifying that the NAS didn't magically expand over the weekend heheh. I've rebooted several times with no change now, except emails letting me know "It's down! " and "It's up!" :) Oh well, we'll see how things go. My client isn't concerned, and knows we'll get it handled shortly, so no major deal.
