Trying to upgrade disks

Hi, I'm trying to increase capacity in my F2-210 after having a problem updating firmware and a tech logged in and said the HDs were on the way out.
I have 2 1TBs and have purchased 2 3TBs so have followed the instructions from here viewtopic.php?f=75&t= to increase Online RAID Expansion.

So I follow that and replace 1 drive with the 3tb and do the expansion successfully but then put the other 3tb in and take the old 1tb out and try to increase again but despite confirm it nothing happens. It also doesn't do anything if i try to repair raid at that point also. If I then reboout with the 3tb alone in, it just goes to initialize and format the drive.

Hope I've explained it well. any ideas?

Thats the link I quoted above myself, it's not working. I do the expansion for 1 larger drive and then take out the old smaller drive and put another new bigger drive in but then try the expansion and nothing happens I get the same problem if I do a repair instead.
