different size drives in raid 5 array!

by ooliya . Updated 18 years, 5 months ago

we have a raid 5 aray that has 3 75 gb scsi drives. the volume has reached its limit of 150 gb. I was thinking of replacing one drive at a time with 150 gb drive and rebuilding the array before replacing second drive, this way i will replace all 3 75 gb drives with 150 gb ones. Anyone tried this? is it possible? i want to have 300 gb user available disk space after i m done with swapping all three 75 gb drives with 150 gb ones.
