| Post subject: | Hard Drive Question |
I currently have the following setup MSI K8 Neo4-f Motherboard Seagate 500GB ATA 100 Hard Drive R5F27 I am interested in buying a 750 GB or 1 TB SATA Hard Drive to add to my system. If I add the new hard drive to my system just prior to doing an auto-upgrade to R5.5, will everything ‘just work’, plug-n-play? Or will I need to do some fancy coding or something to get them to work together seamlessly? The only reason why I ask is because I am a linux noob, and would need to figure out what coding to do prior to install. Thanks. |

auto upgrade is going to do just that, upgrade the existing configuration. If you have a drive sitting in the system but it has not been configured to be mounted etc then it would just be there. Period. I don't believe there is anyway to automatically take advantage of the second drive Now you may think in this realm , Under r5F27 I need to add drives traditionally as LVM, under R5.5 I will get the option of using storage groups. If I just upgrade my existing platform, I would then be able to follow step by step instructions somewhere the build out storage groups and take advantage of this feaiure |
