In this video, I’ll show you exactly how to expand your Btrfs root filesystem by adding a second drive, whether it’s NVMe or SATA. We’ll cover the full process: adding the new device, balancing the data across drives, checking scrub status, and making sure your system stays bootable with GRUB and dracut.

Btrfs is one of the most powerful Linux filesystems for flexible storage, snapshots, and data integrity and with multi-device support, you can easily grow your storage without losing any data.
