Fwiw what I did was partition the 'new' drive, and format it lvm/xfs, I then stoped the backend, copied over the files, changed the mount points and restarted the backend. I left the 'spare' space on the original drive for future use rather than join the drives, that was rather helped by the new drive being 300Gb compared with the original 100Gb though! What I plan to do sometime is get another 300Gb drive to replace the 120Gb one, mirror the system areas and LVM the remainder into one partition. Druid
