      So let’s say I have these 55 Dell’s deployed and later on down the road a drive fails. Can I pull out one of these 500gb drives and replace it with a 1tb or 2tb drive? Will it fail on the reload? I did single drive, multi-part non resize. I am not concerned about the smaller partition because I can resize it with a utility.

        Smaller to larger yes. Larger to smaller no.

        Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          you can replace the drives with a larger size, just not a smaller size the the original computer the image was pulled from. the partition sizes will match the original.

            Well I am okay with that. I am glad they did not purchase 2tb drives at this point then.
