using two hard drives in vestacp

Hi there,

I'm going to install vestaCP on a dedicated server with 2 x 2 TB HDD.
I need the 4 TB to host alot of files and probably will use most of it.

Some vestaCP admin replied to multiple posts of other users and told them to simply use the bigger HD and mount /home there or something when they asked to upgrade the harddisk capacity.

Does that mean that vesta cannot use two HDDs at the same time and that my max capacity is 2TB?

Thanks in advance!

You can use raid or lvm to merge space and mount it somewhere where it is needed.

PS. Raid0 is not safe, because if one disk will be broken, then you lose part of your data. If you need data safety, then you should have bigger disks and use Raid1.
