Hi, I have a short and hopefully simple question: On

https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Growing

there is a section on expanding existing partitions. Does the procedure 
described there also apply to RAID 10 arrays?

I'm asking, because the section above says explicitly that it only 
applies to RAID level 1/4/5/6 arrays. The section on extending 
partitions is silent on that point...

I have a RAID 10 (software) array here, consisting of 4 disks. As one 
of the disks is a bit flaky, I'm thinking of replacing the (all) disks, 
maybe with bigger ones - if that should work.

Thanks, Chris
