RN204: 2x 4TB and 1x 2TB and 1x 3 TB - Not able to use full capacity

That's excactly what I expected how it's working when buying the RN204. But this device is now on it's way back to Amazon and my new QNAP 431+ is initializing the disks right now!
Thanks all for your help!
assume u have 2x4tb drives in bay 1 and 2, 1x2tb in bay 3 and 1x3tb in bay 4
click on the gear wheel and select "destroy" the volume
then select the drives in bay 1 and 2 and create new volume with raid 1, call this array1
it will resync
then select the drive in bay 3 and create new volume with jbod, call this array2
same select the drive in bay 4 and create new volume with jbod, call this array3
Yes thank you but in this case bay 3+4 in JBOD is not redundant.
I understood that X-Raid or Flex-Raid 5 makes sure that in all cases data is protected when one disk stops working.
