Yes, you have a not used disk. If you want to add it to Proxmox VM
storage, you should (first explore commands with -h flag!!!): <br>
1. Add the PV to pve volumegroup (something like 'vgextend pve
/dev/sdb')<br>
2. Change size of LV for data in PVE, i.e. 'lvextend -L +915G
/dev/pve/data/'<br>
3. Resize filesystem, i.e. 'resize2fs /dev/pve/data/'<br>
<br>
You can do all commands without unmounting the filesystem if you
have used Proxmox defaults (ext3/ext4 filesystem)<br>
<br>
I don't know what are you using the server for, but remember that
you don't have data redundancy (raid1).<br>
