Oracle Database Appliance X10, X9, X8, X7, and X6 offer flexibility on the storage capacity of the systems.  It’s recommended to initially configure the system with enough storage capacity to accommodate future data growth.  However, if you experienced more data growth than expected and purchased an ODA with a partially populated storage configuration, you can add storage for additional capacity. 

Note: We recommend you upgrade to the latest ODA software release before adding storage to ensure you have the latest firmware. Refer to the documentation library for the latest Oracle Database Appliance release, for the procedure to configure the storage.
