Hi guys,
I'm running into an issue with my RAID 1 volume. I've read through the documentation and the forums and it sounds like I should be able to see an potion to expand my volume to the size of my new drives, but I can't seem to find the right buttons in the gui. I just swapped out the mirrored 3TB drives for 8TB, but there is no option to expand the volume to match the new drives. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-Brett

Nevemind... the expand capacity button finally showed up when the "Replace disk one by one" menu stopped being greyed out. Thanks!

Re: TS 251 Question - Raid 1 Expansion
Did you actually do the "Replace disk one by one" procedure or did you just swap out the drives, as you indicated in your first post?
