Growing a RAID!

New Seagate-green-2tb platter is here! Unfortunately it will have to pretend to be only 1gb large for now (I didn’t want to go through the hassle of partitioning it and using only one partition in the RAID, which I might later enlarge to use 2TB per disk)

This coincided oddly with a discussion of how RAID works in my Operating Systems lecture… anyway ETA till it has a copy of the rest of the data is 1530 minutes.

Here is the resource I followed to set it up and grow it
