Promise recommends to execute the following when upgrading the physical drive capacity on a Pegasus R(x)/Pegasus2 R(x)ġ. Therefore, you will not see an increase in the logical drive’s size after you’ve successfully rebuilt the previous drive’s sequence to the new drive. If you replace a drive that has a larger space capacity, the drive will reduce its capacity to the smallest drive in the array.įor example, if you have a Pegasus2 R4 with 4 X 2TB drives and replace only one slot with a 4TB drive, the drive will actually allocate and equate to 2TB as the other three slots are configured with 2TB drives in the array. If you’re inquiring about upgrading the storage capacity for an array, you should purchase and replace each drive with the same capacity per each physical drive slot. In addition, Promise recommends that the drives that will be utilized have been cross-referenced with our Pegasus Compatibility List found on our Promise Support Site. The storage capacity can be increased by purchasing higher capacity physical drives. Increasing the Storage Capacity on a Pegasus R(x)/Pegasus2 R(x) Series
