Hi, we have an MSA 2040 configured as follows
Pool A
DG1 5 x 1.2TB 10k Raid 5
DG2 5 x 1.2TB 10k Raid 5
DG3 5 x 1.2TB 10k Raid 5
Pool B
DG1 5 x 1.2TB 10k Raid 5
DG2 5 x 1.2TB 10k Raid 5
DG3 5 x 1.2TB 10k Raid 5
Global Spare
2 x 1.2TB 10k
To add some more storage would I be able to add the following disk group to each pool?
DG4 5 x 1.8TB 10k Raid 5
Is there an issue in using the larger capacity drives in the disk group?
Am I restriced to only being able to add another disk group using 5 x 1.2TB 10k drives?
Thanks
Andy
