The 300 GB disk got full so I added another one, and now Im wondering if I can safely use gconcat to combine the two 300 GB disks without losing the data from the first one, or will the first disk get wiped empty in the process? Another question, what happens if one of the disks in the concat array breaks? Will I lose all data from every disk in the array or from just the one that broke? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/A-couple-of-questions-about-gconcat-t1162435.html#a3051580 Sent from the freebsd-geom forum at Nabble.com.
