I have a dell 4350 with a raid card connected to a dell external array. I have three 73 gig drives in the array set as one Raid 5 disk. I want to add another 73gb drive to the raid set. Can this be done?
 
You should be able to insert the disk on the fly....open array manager and initialize the disk...then reconfigure the Virtual disk to include the new drive....should be all you have to do.
 
I neglected to add that first you have to do a rescan so that the array can ick up the new drive...
