I see in your Seatools screen shots that you have both 3TB and 4TB drives. If there is more than one 4TB, then they will have one more RAID than the 3TB. That's how XRAID does vertical expansion. I've never used that tool or ReclaiME, but from what I've read about ReclaiME, it will show the files on the multi-drive RAID(s) in demo mode once you have enough drives to assemble the RAID(s). I would expect RS to do so as well. But that means you'll need at least 3 drives or drive images available, but all 4 is better in case it needs to use the RAID to recover from any errors on one drive.
