I have attempted to add a 4th hard drive to an array. My server is a Dell Poweredge 2800 with 3 140GB Maxtor 10K Atlas SCSI hard drives in a RAID configuration. I have a PERC SCSI adapter.

I just need some suggestions for adding this drive to the RAID disk pool. I have searched evrywhere for a guide or something but to no avail.

Thanks in advance,
Chris

You can't just pop it in and add it to the pool. You will need to back up your data, rebuild the array and then restore the data to the new container.
