Hallo habe vier Festplatten eingebaut, 2x4TB und 2x2TB und bekomme als freien Speicher 3,63TB genannt? Kann das sein??? Liegt das an RAID6? Was muss ich ändern?
I have two 4TB Harddisks and two 2TB Harddisks. Free Space is 3.63TB. How can it be? Is RAID6 the reason? What can I do?
Although it is on XRAID, it is currently using RAID6. Did you add 2 disks to the existing volume at the same time? Do you have full backup of the files? If not and you can still access files, please back up.
If it's okay with you, access the boot menu then factory reset the NAS with the disks in so it will format the disks and allow you to create a new volume using XRAID which normally it uses RAID5 automatically. See this RAID calculator as a guide.
X-RAID doesn't create a RAID6 on four HDDs, regardless of how many HDDs you replace at once. X-RAID create RAID6 volumes during a Factory Default if 6 HDDs or more in a chassis with 7 bays or more. X-RAID reshapes RAID5 arrays to RAID6 during horizontal expansion starting at the 7th member. I can't see the pics as they're not approved (which is annoying btw), but maybe the user disabled X-RAID, created the RAID6 volume, and re-enabled X-RAID. Anyway, the only one to get back to a RAID5 is to destroy the volume and recreate one.
