    Just mirror the existing volume containing the MSDP to the new disk. After that you can expand the volume to use the full space of the new 30TB disk, and release the old 10TB disk. You'll need to use Operating System volume manager, or Veritas Volume Manager to perform the tasks. This can be done online so no downtime required.
