Looking for some help and advice.
This isnt normally my thing but...
We have one 2008R2 server that does everything in the school DHCP, File shearing etc. but nothing to special. We have 2 disks in that are in a RAID config this was set up when it came however we are now running short on space, so we have bought 2 more disks to put in, in addition to the current ones.
I take it physically fitting them is same as doing it with a normal Desktop.

However how hard is it going to be to RAID them? How do i find out if its software or hardware RAID.

Then how difficult would it be to move some of the shared folders accross to the new drives and just leave the user profiles on the old ones.

Cheers
 
Though Id ask in here again as im getting no where with tech support.

To do a full back up would you recommend acronis snap deploy 4 or Backup & Recovery 11.5 Server for Windows?
