Your question can't be answered.  There are several layers of RAID, and
several software/hardware platforms that could be being used.  For instance,
if you are using a RAID-5 array with the right software, and you are
replacing a drive, it will be automatically added to the array, and
restriped with the data.  A mirror RAIDed may do the same thing.  Now, if
you add one drive to a mirrored RAID array, you get squat.  Just do a search
on RAID on the 'net.  You should get enough information to at least know the
levels of RAID so that you can ask questions that can be answered.

Subject: quick question about raid


I have a quick question about raid.  If I add a new drive will the drive
just be raided or do I have to do something special?

Are there any good articles out there about raid?

TIA,
Brett
