RN3200 XRAID Expansion - Sanity Check.
Folks, We have an existing 6TB (6 x 1TB Factory Stock Drives) in a XRAID2 array which we are looking to expand with the addition of 3 x 2Tb drives from the approved drive list. Ideally I would like ...
O.K. you have 6x1TB with 4TB usable. Add 3x2TB disks giving you an additional 3TB usable (horizontal expansion). Add a further 2TB disk this gives you an additional 1TB horizontal expansion. Then on top of this there is vertical expansion, with a new RAID-6 layer of 4x1TB giving 2TB of vertical expansion. Remember expansion can only take place when redundant space can be added.
So 4TB + 3TB + 1TB + 2TB = 10TB. This is of course before discrepancies in measurement and overheads etc.
