Expanding Volume of existing Raid 5
1 TopicExpanding volume on 626 - Raid 5 to Raid 6 not automatic
A quick note, the RN626X is not listed in the Model drop down when starting a new converstation. So I choose the 716X which is close enough. That said, I recently expanded the volume on my 626 from 4x4TB to 6X4TB. The existing volume was Raid 5, but I was expecting it to automatically migrate over to Raid 6 after adding the 6th drive. However, this did not happen so I'm guessing it requires manual intervention and if true then I fear the existing volume may be destroyed in the process. Can any confirm the process either way?
