So yes, you need to backup, create a new volume, then restore. What are these steps? i see no place on the support on how to do this....the videos are great...but worked for my first time setup....so what do i do now? I want RAID 5 not 4. thanks, JF]]> Converting Volumes johnnyfriday https://forums.softraid.com/converting-volumes/convert-from-raid-0-to-raid-5-question/#post-2650 https://forums.softraid.com/converting-volumes/convert-from-raid-0-to-raid-5-question/#post-2649 Fri, 13 Apr 2018 21:21:42 +0000 Converting Volumes SoftRAID Support https://forums.softraid.com/converting-volumes/convert-from-raid-0-to-raid-5-question/#post-2649 https://forums.softraid.com/converting-volumes/convert-from-raid-0-to-raid-5-question/#post-488 Fri, 13 Apr 2018 02:57:54 +0000 Converting Volumes johnnyfriday https://forums.softraid.com/converting-volumes/convert-from-raid-0-to-raid-5-question/#post-488
