DougCube Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 This has probably been asked before... Is it possible to replace the parity disk with a new larger drive WITHOUT doing a data-rebuild? So it would copy from the old parity disk to the new disk and zero-out the rest without needing to spin-up the other disks. If possible, how? If not, shouldn't it be a requested feature? Forgive me for asking a basic question. I'm a newbie. But I did read https://wiki.unraid.net/The_parity_swap_procedure, which sort of shuffles the contents of 3 drives around. That is not quite what I want. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 You could do that manually but array would need to be offline during that, so probably better to just re-sync it. Quote Link to comment
