I have a client who has a DEll power edge tower with one RAID card with two drives hooked up to it to total 80GBs. they have another disk on an IDE channel set up to run backups too. They added a third drive, a 300GB job, intot he last open IDE hookup as a slave to the 80GB backup drive. They have the RAID drive partitions as C, and D. They have all thier user folders, and mapped drive folders on the D drive, but its running out of space.
What I was thinking of doing is transfer the contents of the D drive over to the new 300GB drive, then eliminate the old D partition, and name the new drive D. I am sure of the best way to go about that though, suggestions?
Also, will this screw with permissions, mappings, etc and so on. There are about 30 users overall, will thier be a signifigant dropoff in network speed by taking the user files off a RAID partition and placing them unto a IDE drive? You know how Windows Server 2003 can be.
