We're looking at getting a new Terramaster D5 and studying drive sizes. There was a question on how and whether we can expand the D5 Raid 5 volume if we started with smaller HDs. Say we use all 5 bays with 8TB and later on put in 14TB...can we expand the RAID volume without wiping everything out?
Sorry if this has been asked before but search revealed nothing for us.
How to expand RAID 5 from smaller HD sizes
