Using 3ware OCE and FreeBSD

Hello,

IN order to use the OCE feature of 3ware controllers would the pseudo 
way to do it be:

1) Un-mount the partition
2) install the new hdd (suppose this could be done before any of this)
3) tell the 3ware controller to expand the capacity
4) remount the partition

Now that all seems easy enough however wouldn't using OCE change the 
partition size (obviously) leading to the partition needing to be 
reformatted?

I've looked on the Internet for instructions but they are few and far 
between.

Anyone got experience of using OCE and FreeBSD.

Cheers
Richard
