We have a system with 17 drives. We are going to add six 70GB drives. If
I add them two at a time they will add them to the existing parity set. If
I add them all at once it will start a new parity set. Starting a new
parity set effectively ties up one of the 70GB drives to raid striping. We
really don't need the space though - we just have 70GB drives laying
around. Without the new drives we are only at 50% used. The existing
parity set has the striping across 8 drives. I take it the new set would
have the striping across 4 drives?
These six 4327's would go into a 5787. Into P1-D1 through P1-D6.
P1-D7 through P1-D12 are 4328's. P2-D1 through P2-D5 and P2-D7 through
P2-D11 are 4328's. Leaving P2-D6 and P2-D12 open.
