Capacity Calculator for XRAID-2?
Can somebody point me to something that will let me compute capacity for my Ultra-6 given number of drives (6), capacity of each (3TB), and degree of redundancy (Dual vs Single)? Tangentially and, ...
For RAID5 it is size * (number of drives - number of redundancy drives)
So very roughly:
3 * (6 - 1) = 15 for single
3 * (6 - 2) = 12 for dual
Actual shown amounts will be less, as the OS takes space and the Tib / TB difference.
If you were to use different drive sizes across the drive set, then using the RAID calculators in the previous post would be your best bet.
