If you originally had 4 * 500 GB disks configured in RAID-Z, you cannot
add 1 single disk and grow
the capacity of the pool (with same protection). This is not allowed.

Hello,
I have been reading alot of good things about Raid-z,
but before I jump into it I have one unanswered
question i can't find a clear answer for.
Is it possible to enlarge the initial RAID
I was considering the same thing (but with 250GB drives)
and instead decided to start with 5*250GB
so that I could do raid-z2 instead
thinking that once you add one more drive
you'd rather have raidz2 than raidz
