March 2, 201412 yr Author I have now copied 4TB from the old server and I still am going to copy another 4TB before I build parity to the new array. I also want to get those four empty 2TB drives off from my old array. It would be best to remove them at same time? And then create a new config? The chances of losing an extra disk in the process is the same, but I could then I could get more disks out. When a new config is started the parity of old array is lost anyway isn't it?
