Hit 8Tb limit - how to expand to 18T physical?
Hi all, hoping for suggestions here for an easy(ish) fix... first let me stress that I've had experience in UNIX and I'm not stupid, but my training is out of date and to be honest I find all the tech...

New disks in place, config restored, data restore commencing now. Looking good so far!
I have 4x3Tb and 2x2Tb installed, and this is giving me 11Tb. A quick calculation based on what I know of X-RAID 2 seems to agree with this size, so that seems OK. I hope it will expand a little when I upgrade to 6x3Tb, but I guess it will 'only' (ha ha) be 12Tb, because it's using double redundancy. Have I got that right?
