Disk configuration suggestions

$

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for disk configuration for me ?

I have 2 x 250Gb and 2 x 1TB drives each configured as RAID 1 mirrors on a hardware RAID card so effectively 1 x 250Gb & 1 x 1Tb

I had thought about installing Proxmox itself on the 250Gb (with a little room for some test machines) and leaving (in general terms) the 1 x 1Tb for a couple of KVM servers. (I need a lot more space than than I do power)

What would be the best way to install in this sort of configuration ? I presume you would install to the 250Gb and then add the 1Tb in after with a new LVM on it ? Or would you grow the existing LVM on the 250Gb drive ?

What about if I wanted to upgrade the 250Gb to say 1Tb in the future - the machine can see more drives but doesn't have the bays for them permanently (4 drives). How easy is it to move the Proxmox install itself ? I presume it would be easier if the 1Tb had a separate LVM ?

Any advice appreciated.
