How Do I Add Capacity to an Existing Disk Array?
2-32 RAID EzAssist User’s Manual
Figure 2-32. Disk Array Configuration Screen
This screen uses the following navigation strategy:
• PgDn and PgUp show you all the available or selected drives if there is
a small down/up-arrow beside the Unused Drives or Disk Array fields.
• Inside Unused Drives, arrow keys select a drive, Enter accepts the
highlighted drive and adds it to the Disk Array box to the right.
• The Tab key shifts control to the buttons, or from the buttons back to
Unused Drives.
• When buttons are in focus, arrow keys select a button and Enter
activates the highlighted button.
 Caution
The drive(s) you select to add capacity to the array
must have the same as or greater capacity than that of
any drive already in the Disk Array field. Try
whenever possible to select drives of similar capacity
when expanding an array.
The Disk Array field (in gray) displays the drives that are already a part of
this disk array.
☞ (Optional): If there is a small down-arrow or up-arrow to the
right of the Disk Array field, use PgDn or PgUp to view the
additional drives in the disk array.
☞ Use the arrow keys to select a disk drive in the Unused Drives
