Adding Additional Capacity with megacli

I'm trying to add 6 more hard drives to my RAID array, none of the drives are foreign, they won't be replacing any drives either. I just need to add them to the RAID array. I can't seem to get them added, what am I missing?

Here's the command I had to use:

Code:

MegaCli -LDRecon -Start -r6 -Add -PhysDrv[24:7] -L0 -a0
