Neil Hello I will be grateful for your reply. Currently I am working on raid0 code reshape. 1. Will you be working on this functionality in the near future ? 2. Should I save the superblocks like mdadm does in the case of 1,4,5,6 ? 3. What is the heuristics of strip_zones ? why do we need them ? . non-power 2 raid0 chunk sizes. 4. Other than segments masks issues, why isn't possible ? can't i fix raid0 to support 3MB chunks with a segment of 1MB ? Thank you On Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 12:14 AM, Neil Brown [off-list ref] wrote:

I think I asked this once before, if so I apologize for the redundancy - but then again maybe something's changed... I've got a RAID-10 array with four drives. It's nearing capacity, and I need to explore expansion options. Can I simply add a pair of new drives? Or do I have to archive the information first and rebuild the array from scratch?It is not currently possible to resize a raid-10.
