Attached.
I'm certain that it's healthy. I guess my question was... replace one, rebuild, replace the other, rebuild. Will it consume all available space?
I will of course make a backup before doing anything.

I have a cache pool of 2x500gb drives.
I want to upgrade those drives. Can I replace one at a time with a larger disk, and not need to disable/move things off my cache drive/pool?
It's been 5 years since I've had to do this (wow, I've had to same unraid system running for at least 15 years!) so pardon the maybe dumb question.
I have a drive I need to swap out, it's got old age and showing some read errors. It's 5 years old (WD Red) and time to decom. I have a precleared 4tb disk ready to replace it.
I remember a way to safely replace a drive without rebuild, as long as the drive being removed was empty. I can't seem to find that article or thread on how that was done... Can someone help me out?
I have a single 250gb cache drive that has reached near its end of life. I do have some "Cache only" shares.
Going to ultimately have 2x500gb mirrored cache drives.
Can I stop array, add a 500gb drive to the current cache, wait for it to sync, remove the old drive, and add in the second 500gb drive?
Haven't added a drive for a few years and it seems the guides / forums have been revamped and I can't find things any longer...
Anyway, adding a drive, it's almost done pre-clearing. I remember a way to add the drive quickly to the array without needing to do another format/zeroing and not need to rebuild parity...
Did that exist, or am I crazy?
