THanks again!
So based on calculations and using 4tb drives, single=18tb and dual=14.4tb.
1) would I even need to do a fresh install from scratch? or is that needed to get to dual mode only?
My bottom line questions:
Is there a difference in final size for adding the 6x4tb drives one at a time into the exiting system?
or is there a space advantage be regenerating from scratch and keeping single mode?
My guess is I would have to gen from scratch to convert to dual mode?
Many thanks!
