masteripper Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 (edited) Hi!I don't know whats the story with HP server but i guess like other Brands there is a utility somewhere that will allow u to use that extra drive.Think simpleAt first add the drive.Nothing is going to happen.Perhaps ur RAID controller will see it perhaps not.Then u should have some kind of HP Tools that give control over the RAID Controler.U should see some kind of option of adding the new drive at least.After that there should be some other option to change the array in order to use it.Its along shot but its better to take a good backup before you do anything.....just in case Edited May 5, 2008 by masteripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
