Increasing available disk storage?

» close window

The Question is:

 
We have a DS20 with single process and RAID 5.
With five 9 GB drives: 3 data drives, 1 hotswap, 1 parity drive so total of
 27GB storage.
 
How can we add more storage space, like say double the space??  I know that we
 can go SAN, but it is little too much for the amount of space we have.  Do you
 have products like the SAN but just use SCSI connection?? Can that storage
 device be share with N
T server file server?
 
thanks

The Answer is :

 
  Simply replace the existing 9GB disks with 36GB disks?
 
  Other existing SCSI solutions include the HSZ-series controllers.
