6. create new partitions in the empty space on the new larger disks
and raid them.


but this isn't really growing the array. All you're doing is creating a 2nd
md device, and using LVM to add it into the existing LV, and expanding the
filesystem on that. Not that there's anything wrong with that - I've done it
many times in the past myself.
