+==== Expand an array over an additionnal disk ====
+
+Thanks to a co-worker, I have now a quick howto.
+
+Assuming your new unassigned drive is identified as ![252:3] and you have a RAID5 array identified as L0 (See documentation above to figure out how to find this).
+
+Reconfigure the array to add this new drive:
+{{{
+server ~ # megacli -LDRecon -Start -r5 -Add -PhysDrv[252:3] -L0 -a0
+
+Start Reconstruction of Virtual Drive Success.
+
+Exit Code: 0x00
+}}}
+
+Check operation progress:
+{{{
+server ~ # megacli -LDInfo -L0 -a0
+
+
+Adapter 0 -- Virtual Drive Information:
+Virtual Drive: 0 (Target Id: 0)
+[...]
+Ongoing Progresses:
+  Reconstruction           : Completed 40%, Taken 163 min.
+[...]
+}}}
