Hello,
I have a Dell PE1650 server with no PERC RAID controller but the standard Adaptec AIC-7899 onboard SCSI card with a 72GB drive. The drive is currently in basic mode and divided into three parts: utility (small), system/C: (4gb), and data/D: (64gb). We wanted to add a 146GB drive to the mix without disrupting the current setup, hopefully by simply spanning D: to include the new drive.
Can someone offer a RAID-newbie some suggestions here? I tried venturing into OpenManage 3.5 but didn't get very far other than creating a new volume without drive letter and formatting it. Thank you!
