Break the raid5 array if built.
Power down and remove all drives execpt #1
Power backup, hot swap a new drive into position 2.
Powerup, once up hot swap the remaining hd,
then build your new raid5.
Done

I took 5 hr to build the 4x400gig raid5 in my 4500 so 750's should be around 7 hrs.
Thanks, this one has the S2S key installed, I wasn't sure if that would follow the update or if I should copy the key down just in case.
I've been looking for a Guardian OS 3 and 4 version to load before I upgrade
but since the only snaps I've every owned were all 4000/4100 units I don't have any non Snap OS Sups.
