[OT] RAID
- Subject: [OT] RAID

I know the subject comes up from time to time.................
Just a theoretical question. Here is the scenario:
Current server is SATA, no raid and one 80gb system drive.
Need/want to upgrade to RAID 5.
So if a RAID card is added and a further 3 more drives are bolted in.
Will the raid (or software) config be clever enough to start spanning
over the 4 drives?
Then could the original 80gb drive be retired.
How do I know the answer to that is going to be 'no' :-).
In other words go from 'no raid' to 'raid 5' without having to copy the
system partition or re-load the OS.
Rob
