Should be no problem to use them as is providing they have a Linux compatible file system.

Hi,

maybe you have solved your problem.

But just for the records: I solved this by first adding the 2 empty disks to the pool, moved all content from the filled disk to the pool and if this was done, add the (formerly filled disks) to the pool.
