Convert stripping Raid array to a Spanned volume


3 years ago, created 2x 1 tb partitions our file server on our san. next made them available our file server host running on windows server 2008 r2 server , set 2 drives stripped volume. getting short on space , need add more space , if try add additional 500gb of space, not allow me.

i think because stripped volume , not spanned volume. wondering, how can add additional space stripped volume? if cannot, can convert stripped volume spanned volume without losing data?

or other options around this?

once a stiped volume created, cannot add more space becuase cannot extend striped volume or mirror it.  , cannot convert spanned one. suggestion backup the date 2tb drive first, create new striped volume on 2 * 1tb + 500gb .
