Ready NAS316 capacity

Question

I have 2 x 12TB Hard disks and 4 x 6TB hard drives,

Acknolwedges 12TB HD as 10.9 TB capacity but the whole volume only reads 27.27 TB.

netgear raid calculator says it should read 32.7 TB.

Any ideas?

Are you using X-Raid = 32.7 TiB or Flex-Raid, RAID 5 = 27.2 TiB ?Best switch to X-Raid I think using Admin Page System: Volumes&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hello Am using X-Raid&nbsp;Firmware is 6.9.1

Did you reboot the NAS after the 12 TB drives synced?&nbsp; Usually that is needed to trigger vertical expansion.

DSRedman · Answer

This is a fresh install due to chassis replacement&nbsp;

StephenB · Answer

Try rebooting, and see if that triggers expansion.
