Hi,

I have a raid5, one disk went bad, so I got a replacement one. Sadly
this SW raid is created out of externel HDs (IDE in a box, then via
SCSI). So the new one has a slightly different HD inside with a slitly
smaller in cluster size.

Now my question is. Is there a way to resize all the other HDs "live" ?
I doubt that. I would need to re-create the whole raid so all the other
partitions are slightly smaller? It might be better to just get a bigger
HD and then create a smaller partition inside I think.
