I currently have a RAID 10 setup on my Mac Pro using 4 x 500GB drives for a total of 1GB of protected hard drive space. I am starting to run out of space so I need to upgrade. I'm thinking of just buying 4 x 1TB drives and keeping the same setup, but I need some help.

I know I can take out one of the mirror sets (2 x 500 drives) and still be up and running. Is there a way to then add 2 x 1TB drives and setup a striped pair, take out the other 2x 500 after that, then finally add the last 2 x 1TB drives and mirror the striped set?

Any suggestions would really help.
