My Book World Edition II RAID 1 Expand

Hello,

I wonder if you can help. I’m looking at buying a My Book World Edition II with 2x1TB drives. I will configure these drives in RAID1, giving me a total of 1TB of storage. I’m trying to find out if this NAS supports expanding the RAID array without loss of data. i.e. replace 1 of the drives with a 2TB drive and allow the array to rebuild, then replace the other disk with a 2 TB drive and allow the array to rebuild. This would then give me a 2TB volume with no data loss.

Other devices support this, but I can’t see anything on Western Digital’s site to tell me if it is supported on the My Book World Edition II.

Many thanks for your help.

Richard

The only Western Digital Network Attached Storage Hard Disk Drive that supports expansion is the WD ShareSpace.
