ReadyNAS Pro 6 install not allocating all available space
Two issues: Win 8.1. Six 4TB HGST Deskstar NAS HDs. Connected via Ethernet to router. I can see it fine on the network. X-RAID2 only allocates 8.1TB (RAID 0 allocates 10). 1.673 TB each drive....

factory default with one drive and update the firmware (yours is quite old) then power down, put all drives in and factory default again. I'd suggest this is a better plan.
Good call. In progress.

You won't be able to expand without doing another factory default because of the 16 tb volume limit. This means that a factory default is required to setup any volume that exceeds 16 tb.
That stinks. Hopefully 20TB (XRAID2 config if sees all of it) will last me a while. Thank you!
