RN102 mixed drives
I'm trying to use two drives with different sizes (1TB and 5TB) and get some level of protection. According to https://kb.netgear.com/21387/What-is-the-volume-capacity-when-installing-disks-of-differ...
That article is accurate for Sparc ReadyNAS, the last of which was discontinued about 6 years ago now.
" In Flex-RAID mode, you can utilize the leftover space on the 3 750GB disks by creating another data volume (3 x 500GB)." certainly does seem to indicate that to be possible, but I've always believed that not to be the case. Maybe it's new? If you disable XRAID on the Volume menu and then select the 5TB drive, can you select "New Volume"?
