I've got a PowerEdge 700 with the following SATA RAID controller:
0000:02:01.0 RAID bus controller: Adaptec AAC-RAID (rev 01)
Subsystem: Dell CERC SATA RAID 2 PCI SATA 6ch (DellCorsair)
Flags: bus master, 66MHz, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 177
Memory at f4000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M]
Expansion ROM at fe100000 [disabled] [size=32K]
Capabilities: <available only to root>
( 0000:02:01.0 0104: 9005:0285 (rev 01) )
This controller works fine with the Linux aacraid module, and I can use
Adaptec's arcconf utility with it. There are currently three 120 GB disks
attached in RAID 5.
Would it be possible to connect a fourth sata disk to this controller,
and extend the RAID 5 array so I get 120 GB of extra capacity, of course
without having to reinitialize the array? How would I do that in
practice? Any pointer to documentation of this specific controller would
be welcome.
