7357.0. "Adding Wide Drive to Narrow Raid Set" by DUKBIL::Vaughn () Wed Feb 19 1997 16:49

Could somebody verify that we can add a 4-GB wide
SCSI disks (FR-PCXWR-AZ) to an existing array made up entirely of 4-GB
narrow SCSI disks (FR-PCXVR-AZ) without encountering any problems.  The
adapter being used in Digital's PCI Fast-wide SCSI-2 Two-channel RAID
Controller (FR-PCTAR-BD).  The new disks would be incorporated into an
existing single-disk-image array, increasing the 'apparent' size of that
disk by 4-GB for each physical disk added.  

The disks are in the Prioris's drive bay.
