Hi,

We are wanting to increase the number of disks in each of our storage 
nodes - from 4 to 12.

I'm wondering whether it is better to:

1/ Add 1st new disk (with a reduced weight)...increase the weight until 
full, then repeat for next disk etc

2/ Add 'em all with a (much i.e 1/8 of that in 1/ ) reduced 
weight...increase the weights until done

Thoughts?

regards

Mark
