Hello!
I have a DL110 G7 whith a B110i array controller. I have 2 SATA 250 Gb disks in Raid 1, with Windows Server 2012 Foundation. I want to update with 2 Evo 860 1Tb disks. What is the best option not to reinstall all?
I read there are 2 options:
1- Change one disk a try to rebuild the data with the other disk, pressing F1 when the Server is Powering. If I do it, the array is updated with the new disk? If I do it for two times, I can change 2 disks, but can I recover the unsized space to use all the 1Tb space instead of 250Gb?
2- Change 2 disks and create a new array with new disks. Then, try to use some clone software to recover all. Someone do it? Is secure to do it? what is the best software to clone Windows Server 2012 in Raid 1? If I do it and have any problem running the system, what´s happens when I put old disk?? the system recognized then and start or I must to do something ?? I am afraid if the system not running and I insert old disks, because I think I must to make a new array, and if a do it... all the data is going to be erased.
Thanks!!
