I am not sure what you are trying to do - do you want to add the two new 
drives to an existing array? You will have to copy the data off the 
existing array, add the drives, and then re-initializing the array. Then 
you can copy your data back to the newly expanded array.

If there is another way to do this, I'd love to hear about it!
