David,
Get an external USB 2.0 4TB drive for under $130.Use it to offload internal
storage.Easy, portable, cheap.

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of what to do for an upgrade?
I have a HP Proliant Microserver N54L with 4x 2Tb drives which I have been
happy with for more than a year but I have started to run out of disk space in
my zfs pool. I have been pruning the snapshots and rubbish but filling it up
now is inevitable.
What I would really like to do is to swap the disks out for larger one but I
doubt that this is really practical as to make this work you need spare disk
slots which I don't have.
Another option might be to add a SATA card and add more disk that way. But I
have no idea of where to start with this, and even if this microserver can do
that.
And a third is just to get a new server. I can't see any which have more than 4
drive bays do these exist (for reasonable money) or do you need to make your
own? If so anyone got a recommendation?
Thanks
D
