I searched.. I really did.. didn't see anything that is super recent....
I do see there were requests...many requests.. but they were all at least a year old.....
I'm now to FreeNAS and built my first system using a Dell computer...
Running FreeNAS 11.3
all is working great... backups, data, plex, etc..
Built with 4, 4TB drives.....
I fear I know the answer but....
Can I add a 5th drive to this existing pool and expand to the new capacity without destroying the existing pool?
I do see there is an option to extend a pool... but not sure if that is the correct place...
so.. boiled down.. I have a 4 disk pool... can I make it a 5 disk pool without destroying the existing?
Thanks!
