Hi all,
It's been a while. Can I add a disk to a RAID 5 array without data loss? Is this easy to do (if possible)?

Thanks :D

I just reconstructed my RAID1 into a RAID5 resulting in the array increasing dramatically in size. However, NASLite still only sees the previously partitioned space. From what I gather, you need to boot with a linux livecd such as gparted and resize the partition.
