 A client would like to upgrade their disks in an old system (model
400).  They currently have 12 x 2GB disks.  There is one pair that is
mirrored and the rest are RAID'ed.  Since there are no available bays, if
they wanted to double or almost double the size of their disk space, what
would the procedure be to transfer the data?

 Can the data be "pumped" somehow or does a full system restore need to be
done?  If the latter, can a SAVSTG be done?

 TIA.
