I added a new basic hard drive to a windows 2000 server--
ran disk management-- rescan-- it show up as unallocated--
what is the process for making it a dynamic array like the
other 2 drives that are installed? Looked on Technet for a
procedure- did not find one-- not sure to break mirror of
other two and then make the new one dynamic etc??????

disks:
