Hey Guys,

The subject is pretty self-explanatory, but here's a bit of detail:

Im currently saving for a couple of 500Gb SATA drives and a RAID controller to create a NFS server running RAID level 1.

Because I just moved house it's gonna take me a while to save up the £400/£500 to buy the kit.

My new housemate has offered up a 160Gb IDE HD.
I'd like to install this disk and increase my already existing logical volume (mounted on /shared) to include this disk as a temporary measure.

Is this possible?
Could I lose data?
Is this something I would have to setup using the commandline or does it have a KDE interface?

Please help.
Thanks
