hi, I have a DL360 G5 which has two hard disks. No RAID was done during the install. So now, the OS and applications are set up on the first disk and the second disk though partitioned as E in windows 2003 is not used and is just sitting there. With this setup, is there anyway I can add one more disk and setup RAID 5 without losing any data? if so, how? Just looking for some fault tolerance here without harming the data.
Another question I have is, assuming I do have RAID 5 on this machine, is there anyway I can later extend the C partition by adding more disks? Just wondering what folks do to deal with the problem of the ever reducing disk space on the server's C drive.
Incidentally, it has smart array P400i.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions.
