Increase Volume Size on RAID 1 Storage Pool

Morning - I recently upgraded RAID 1 on our F2-221 from 2 x 2TB to 2 x 4TB (IronWolf). However, I did not use this Online RAID Expansion thread (viewtopic.php?f=75&t=1543) as I'm very ignorant.

So, now I have 2 x 4TB in the Storage Pool, but only 2TB showing in the Volume. I apologise for being very stupid.

Can I mend this? Or shall I move back to the 18th century?

Cheers,

Chris

This was the thread I accessed when I changed the drives: viewtopic.php?f=79&t=1545. Where it says to use an equal or bigger drive as replacement, I didn't realise it would not recognise the volume size correctly. Sigh.

Cheers,

Chris

If the storage pool is expanded, edit the volume to expand the capacity,If this does not work, please refer to this link viewtopic.php?f=79&t=2342
