Adding another Hard drive

[ixnet]

Have a small question. i just reinstalled proxmox 2.0 on a 1TB hard drive but i have a 1.5 TB hard drive on this server too. i want add it to courent store. i dont want to expand my 1 TB i want another storage like of 1.5 TB (like c: and d: on windows)

Short story: i will install windows home server on my 1 TB hardrive with kvm, i will use min requirement to install it. i will install os on 1TB hd but i want to use the complete 1.5 TB hd for data (i will add another HD to whs KVM

But if my proxmox hd fail i still want to be able to read data on 1.5 TB on pluging it on another pc.

Any way to do this ?

sorry for my bad english

Hi,
you have two choices:
First use an filesystem (like ext3/ext4) on the disk, mount the disk (fstab) und define this directory in the storage-menu of pve.
Or create an volumegroup (lvm) on the disk (partition), and define this VG in the storage-menu.

There are a lot of posting about both things in the forum.
