sizing 516 volume/raid choice
Since the os6 seems to have stabilized I am shopping for a 516. I have a couple of questions about volume /raid configurations. If I go with a raid 6 will I have the capacity of 3 drives for volumes...
Personally I would go with 4 2TB drives (or larger). With RAID-6, you'd get the same space for about the same cost. Plus you have two open slots for future expansion. It's always cheaper to expand by popping a new disk into an empty slot.
