gator4ever Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 I am rebuilding my server. New everything except drives. But I am going from 11 drives (1 parity 10 data) down to 9 (1 parity 8 data). Am I correct in assuming that the only way to do this is to move all the data off then run the New Config tool? I do not have any data on the two drives I am removing. Thank you.

If no data then what means of move all the data off ? 1 hour ago, gator4ever said: New everything except drives. Best have test new system stable, attach spare disk to verify. Or at lease execute uncorrect parity check before any writing or changing for array when attach to new system. Quote Link to comment
