How Do I Add Additional Storage to My Storage Sync Appliance?

To add additional storage for your Storage Sync appliance, you'll need to turn off the virtual appliance. Once it shuts down, click Edit Virtual Machine Settings and click Hard Disk from the list to add an additional Hard Disk. The hard disk type must be SCSI.

Once the new virtual disk is in place, turn on the Storage Sync or Smart Cache appliance. This additional virtual hard disk will act as an extended storage device.

Ensure that you ADD a new virtual disk instead of expanding the already existing one. Do not expand the volume, as the device may not recognize the change.
