I have a windows server 2008 with 5*2TB disks in a windows server software raid 5. I want to shrink the volume down to 3 disks and use the other two disks elsewhere but can't find a guide on how to proceed. Does anyone have any advice on how to proceed here? Just taking disks offline seems a bit harsh and as far as I can see there is no resize option. | ||||

There is no resize/shrink procedure. Your only choice is to backup, recreate your RAID volume and restore. | |||

You can use Aomei Dynamic Disk Manager to remove two drives from the software RAID 5. The is a step by step tutorial, you might give it a go: http://www.dynamic-disk.com/resource/remove-drive-from-raid-5.html | |||
