Hi

I'm implementing vsan in my environment which consist of 4 hp g5 dl580 servers. Each server has 4*146GB magnetic hard disks and 1 SSD. It is in test phase and would be presented and accomplished in 1 month and Finally it should be delivered with 1TB HDDs instead of these small capacity HDDs. Now i have 1 problem and 1 question:

problem:

For  presenting magnetic disks, i should do RAID0 them while booting servers and because they can not be  added to server automatically, i have to reset each server for identifying. Is there any way to present them without resetting the servers?

question:

As my HDDs are 146GB and we are going to increase them to 1TB, i want to know what would happen to data after replacing them?

(i  have set VSAN to 1 failures tolerating, "no stripe" and "no reserved cache" and "thin provision mode").

Thanks for any reply in advanced.
