April 1, 201511 yr I have an array of 10 2Tb disks including the parity drive. One data disk is dead and unRaid has disabled that drive. I don't have a spare 2tb to replace it and rebuild the array with. Is it possible to upgrade the parity drive first to a larger size drive (4tb), then replace the dead disk with a new drive the same size as parity and have unRaid rebuild that drive? Unraid beta 6.0.14 Thanks!
April 1, 201511 yr Look at this section of the Manual for unRAID 6: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/UnRAID_Manual_6#Replace_a_Failed_Disk Your situation appears to require the "swap-disable" procedure. I would personally recommend that you preclear your new parity disk before doing this procedure. You want to make absolutely certain that your new parity disk is good before you start!!!
