Hello list,

Where, in the handbook, can I find where to add a new hard drive to an 
existing system?  I know vaguely that I need to do a newfs and such, as 
well as an fdisk, but I don't know what all the options mean and how to 
best optimize this drive.  Also, I'm thinking of obtaining an identical 
drive as my system drive and performing a dump of sorts on a schedule 
for backup purposes.  anyone have any insight?

thanks
