What happens to a new expanding disk
To perform a system reset, I removed my 1TB disk Then added a 80GB disk to perform all functions. What happens then, if I place the 1TB back in the array? Can I take out the 80Gb and then simp...
Oh yes
Because I had to do a password reset, because I didn't use it for a year, and forgot all. Now it is written down and put in a safe deposit box.
So I reset it to do that, with a blank disk, to set it up again, and my goal is to be back where I was a year ago: all my data on my TB that I have access and admin access to.
So now I have to back up the 1TB and do the process again with that? which I should have done...
Also ordered a new disk - could I wait for that and, make the reset on that and then plug in the old disc, and it would RAID sync?
Or does it only work the other way around? that I and old volume can copy to a new, but not visa versa?
