Microsoft storage spaces question

Hi. I have a question regarding Microsoft Windows Storage Spaces. 

If my mirrored array gets full and I want to add bigger drives but I don’t have any more connections for drives on my board, how do I go about it? Do I pull out one of the drives and put a new one in and then have it rebuild to the new disk. Or do I click the prepare for removal option and give it the new disk to use? But then if that’s the case how can I add the new disk to the pool with all that data on it as I thought windows formats the drive when you add it to a pool.  Thanks.
