Increasing Space in Software Raid



Hello

I have a server running RHEL 4 and it has a software Raid (1) of 2 250
gb Sata disks. I want to upgrade this to two 750 gb disks in a Raid 1
configuration. There is not another SATA slot available.

Here is some more information

# df -ah

none 0 0 0 - /proc
none 0 0 0 - /sys

# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/md1 / ext3 defaults 1 1

none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sdb2 swap swap defaults 0 0
LABEL=SWAP-sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb ext3 defaults 0 0


Any suggestions/tips?
