if you want to keep vmdk : then
VBoxManage clonehd "cloned.vdi" "resized.vmdk" --format vmdk
VBoxManage clonehd "cloned.vdi" "resized.vmdk" --format vmdk

you will need in fact two, if you are with a degraded array
+
VBoxManage clonehd "cloned.vdi" "cloned2.vdi"
The above will resize the hard disk up to 50GB (50 * 1024MB).

Then you have to resize the drive inside the VM

*Then you have to resize the drive inside the VM, so add your new drives and start the VM

* you will have to play with the array by first resize partition of the second disk ( if you are a degraded array mod, then first resize the partitions, add to array, sync, then remove old)

* then simply resize the file system

if you are using a raid only mode :
+
resize2fs /dev/md3
+
if you have no raid no lvm
+
resize2fs /dev/sda2

if you are using a raid lvm mode
+
pvresize /dev/md1

pvresize /dev/md2

lvresize -l +$(vgdisplay -c vg_primary | cut -d: -f16) vg_primary/lv_root
