Simple ReadyNAS 6 Pro XRAID2 question
Hello, I have a 6 bay ReadyNAS Pro 6 RNDP6000-200 with 1 WD WD20EFRX 2TB Red drive in it. The drive is almost full, and I want to add some space. I am considering either adding 1 more WD20EFRX,...
TB stands for terabyte; TiB stands for tebibyte. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tebibyte The NAS reports TiB, but mislabels it as TB.
You have 14 TB, which is the same as 12.7 TiB.
The conversion formula is
14 TB = 14 * (1000/1024) * (1000/1024)* (1000/1024) * (1000/1024) TiB - which is ~12.7
Having two measures for space is very confusing, but goes back a very long time.

Can you re-explain what you want to inquire about specifically, and send me a copy of your logs?
Hi kohdee
It's a long thread, and the core problem is back a ways.

2 x 2TB
4 x 3TB
It shows my space as 9.99TB available
This is with OS6, and of course the volume should be about 11.8 TiB. It'd be helpful if you can take a look.

Hello,
I sent my logs in just now. I also am in the middle of a drive upgrade and the volumes are syncing. I mentioned this in the email that sent my logs.
So, I will have 5 x 3TiB + 1 2TiB drive, and I am betting it will show 9.99TiB total.

Thanks to all for the help thus far.
