Figure 10 - 2 Expansion by Adding Drive<br />

<strong>RAID</strong> levels supported: <strong>RAID</strong> 0, 3, and 5.<br />

The new partition must be mapped to a host LUN in order for the<br />

HBA (host-bus adapter) to recognize its presence. If you want to add<br />

the new partition into an existing partition, operating system support<br />

is necessary.<br />

Adding New Drive to a Logical Drive<br />

First select from main menu “View and Edit Logical Drive,” and select<br />

a logical drive to add a new drive to. The drive selected for adding<br />

should have a capacity no less than the original member drive. If<br />

possible, use drives of the same capacity because all drives in the<br />

array is treated as though they have the capacity of the smallest<br />

member drive in the logical array.<br />

Press [ENTER] to select a logical drive and choose “add SCSI drives”<br />

from the submenu. Proceed with confirming the selection.<br />
