Xraid2 dual redundant vs FlexRaid 6?
What's the pro's and con's of each? They both seems to be identical if Dual redundant is selected.

I had another thread asking this question but deleted it and merge it here since they're related.
So I flipped out and reset the NAS and configured FlexRaid dual redundant and I'm still seeing 47 GB (1%) of 3683 GB used which tells me I still only have 4Tb. Do I have to wait until all the resync is done? There are no data on any drives at the moment and all drives were in place after the factory reset.
All 6 drives is showing 927 GB allocated only while 4 of the drives are actually 2Tb. So what does it mean when it says "allocated"? If it means usable storage then I should have 6Tb once complete?
I have 2x 1Tb and 4x 2Tb configured it to a Flex Raid 6 and it's only seeing 4Tb. I thought Flex Raid 6 is supposed to give me 6 TB with 2 drives redundant?
