That is the way it is suppose to work. Can you change the controller card with the same drives? Do you have disk space to take a couple of drive out of service? I have replaced smaller drives by removing one raid 5 set at a time and building the raid on the new larger drives. Can one build a raid set on drives that are already in use? That is where I am fuzzy.

Subject: Disk swap on Model 600 with v4r2
I am considering swaping 4 Gb drives with 8 Gb drives on an old Model 600.
I plan to swap the controller as well so I can turn on RAID protection.
This isn't a real problem, but the hardware is so old that the prospect of
this scares me a bit. So the real question is if the restore fails, can I
just put the old hardware back in (in the same place it was before), and
everything will be the way it was before? Or do I need to do something
else?
