October 18, 20187 yr Just successfully upgraded my single 128GB ssd cachedrive to 2 250GB ssd's using Gridrunner's youtube video. Thanx Gridrunner. After finishing, a thought crossed my mind that perhaps would have made the process a bit simpler... Backup & restore is simple enough but copying the libvert file & reconstructing the docker file had a lot of steps to follow & doublecheck. I'm wondering why simply adding a new drive to the cachepool in raid1 config(default mirror) wouldn't mirror the data onto the new drive and then removing the original drive from the pool, shouldn't I be left with my cache data on the new larger drive without worrying that I missed that 1 critical step ... or doesn't it quite work that way?
