Issue

When attempting to add disks to an existing aggregate, the preview displayed is not showing correct disk count for the "Second plex": 
 

ClusterA::> storage aggregate add-disks -aggregate aggr1 -disklist 7.70.0,7.70.1,7.70.2,7.70.3,7.70.4,7.70.5 -mirror-disklist 6.20.0,6.20.1,6.20.2,6.20.3,6.20.4,6.20.5  -raidgroup rg0 -simulate true

Disks would be added to aggregate "aggr1" on node "Node1" in the following manner:

First Plex

  RAID Group rg0, 28 disks (block checksum, raid_dp)
                                                      Usable Physical
