Just a data point -- our netapp filer actually creates additional raid groups that are added to the greater pool when you "add disks", much as zfs does now. They aren't simply used to expand the one large raid group of the volume. I've been meaning to rebuild the whole thing to get use of the multiple parity disks back.
Ours is a few years old and isn't running the latest software rev, so maybe they've overcome this now, but thought I'd mention it.
