The procedure is not complicated at all: 1) partition the new disk as required. 2) add the new partition to the raid with: mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/hda1 of course using the prepared partition insted of /dev/hda1. The new raid partition will be sync'ed in background as you continue work. That's all there is to it! Jerry
