Mostly. 

After it rebuilds with the second drive, you may need to use HP Array
Manager to expand the logical drive to use the rest of the space. Then
resize your partition.

Subject: Upgrading Hard Drives on DL380 G3 Mirror

 

I need to upgrade a dl380 g3 from dual 146 drives to dual 300 drives.  I
have backups of the data and do not want to rebuild the server from
scratch (unless I have to).

Can I simply take the following steps:

*       remove a drive to break the mirror, put in the new drive, let it
rebuild and complete
*       remove the second drive, put in the second new drive, and let it
rebuild and complete
*       Use Acronis Disk Director to resize the partition to 300 GB
