mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.

mdgm is paid by Netgear for consultancy work by his own admission. I'm sure you have no vested interest, but I haven't seen any defensive reflexes from you, neither. ;)

I think you need to read my argument again, as you seem to have missed my point. In different words: if I can only use 6.3TB of my 12TB disks (RAID5-array so 9TB x 0.7) for "performance reasons" or whatnot, why shouldn't I buy a competing product without the 70% "limitation" and throw the additional storage waste on a higher/faster RAID level?
