I have 3 drives under RAID5 9GB each. My drive E: is almost full, F: is empty. Do I have to manually map folders and advice users to save now in this location or the system knows where to send more data to the empty space? Thanks Carlangas.

In general, RAID array would appear as a SINGLE device, no matter how many disks you have in it. If you have it partitioned to multiple volumes then you are limited to whatever size you set on the partition.

You may be able to resize the partition though. I believe PowerQuest.com have a product that'll do that for servers like their PartitionMagic for the standalone PC's.
