NV+ V2 Volume expansion failed with 4x4TB WD red drives
I'm trying to set up with 4 x 4TB Segate disks. Factory reset done, disk control ok.. but volume ends up 8TB. Latest firmware installed, all looks good. I tried just use 3x4TB, volume ended up 7...

Sync finished.. volume total 8.1TB with 3x4TB + 1x3TB.. Flex Raid 5..
Really annoying. Did i buy those 4TB for nothing? I had same with 3x3TB and 1x4TB..
I have online backup, so i wonder. If i do raid 0, will i then get full value?

Nice Calkulator. That made me see whats going on :) So all is ok.. it's just the raids that dont handle different volumes.
Will go for 4x4TB then, try get most out of it with raid 5
Thanks for help :D
