I want to upgrade my Raid 5 on an IBM x350 Server from 3 9.1 GB drives to 4 18.2 GB Drives. The OS is on another logical drive. The one I want to upgrade is a production DB. I'm using IBM ServeRAID Manager on this box. My plan is to do an NT backup of the production db and then replace the drives. Then do an NT restore and rebuild the array. Does this sound feasible? Am I missing anything? Thanks
