NO!

Mirroring is only possible to the same H/W media so that you cannot split
the mirror, replace one 9GB by 18GB, resync, and perform the same for the
other 9GB disk to avoid the reload.

See Manual Mirrored Disk/iX User's Guide, Product Specifications:
     Mirrored Partners must be the same model of disk drive.

You'll need a reload, definetly!

Hi,

I have been asked this by a colleague, and I am sure someone on the group
will know the answer.
A customer of theirs has mirrored disks, 4 9gb drives. Is it possible just
to replace them with 4 18gb drives without a re-load or anything

TIA

Pete
