I have a Dell 2950 raid 1. I cloned the 73gig drive to a 146gig drive. The clone worked fine except it shows the 146gig drive as a 73 gig drive. How can I increase the partition to use all of the 146 gigs?

Yes ! the RAID will see 146GB volume

Will it rebuild the second drive ? Or, do I need to extend the partition on it also?[/quotemsg]

It should rebuilt the with the 2nd drive...
but to make sure, use "diskpart" to clean the 2nd HDD before let it rebuilt

connect 146GB to a SATA port of your MOBO, make sure it;s AHCI.
Go to Disk Manager - expand the partition to use al of unused space
Done!
