readynas 104 dual-disk redundancy? Flex Raid and XRaid2
Hi,
I have an old NV+ and was thinking about upgrading but was looking for a dual-disk redundant system.
Sadly the website isn't particularly clear (or I'm not looking at the right pages). Does the new 104 support dual-disk redundancy (Raid 6)?
It seems (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22808) that flex-raid does raid 6 with at least 4 disk (so the 104 should be able to).
And is it true (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22802) that XRaid2 only does single disk redundancy?
Any help would be appreciated.
Hava a nice day

- Disable X-RAID, delete the volume, create a RAID-6 volume (at least four disks must be installed to use this), switch back to X-RAID and download the logs. Have a look at mdstat.log. It should show that md127 is using RAID level 6.
