When you are on XRAID mode and added 1st HDD of 10TB , There will be no additional capacity seen after Sync . Volume should be same around 27T even now . Space increase will be seen from the next drive added . Add the next 10TB , You should see a 3.6T increase in Space (Approx 30.5T) and the same will follow for the rest drives when repalced . This would happen only when the XRAID is on .
