Add physical disk to virtual disk raid 0 PowerEdge r430
We have a 300gb virtual disk and wanted to add 2 1tb physical disk to it but when I tried to add it it only gets 300gb for ea disk and not the whole 1tb.. Is there anyway to configure to add the whole 1tb drive?

Hi, before making any changes to your RAID configuration, it is crucial to back up your data to prevent any potential loss or data corruption. I don't know which PERC you have but if your PERC supports disk expansion you can check out the below methods. But considering that you have RAID 0 I'm thinking it can't be expanded up to 1TB because of storage size added by each disk is limited to the size of the smallest drive.
