Mixing Disk Drives?

I've got a couple of questions regarding the disks in my 520.

First, I've got 7-4326 (35gb) drives installed all into one ASP and it is
running RAID-5. The first 4 show their size in WRKDSKSTS as 26373, the next
3 show 35165, is this correct, or does it mean something's not configured
correctly?

Second, I've just realized that our disk usage requirements are growing much
faster than originally anticipated. I am looking at buying a couple of 4327
(70gb) disk drives. Will I be able to add these into the system as-is? Or,
will I need to make some changes? Can I get by with just adding 1, or will I
have to add 2 or more?
