We originally purchased it with one 73 gig scsi drive and have installed FreeBSD 5.4. Recently we were able to pick up 3 identical drives that we would like to add to the RAID configuration having them mirror the original drive. My question is, how do I go about adding the additional drives? Is there a bios modification that needs to be done to recognized the drives or is it a FreeBSD configuration issue?
