Seem's I'm missing TB?

[takagari]

My Readynas seems shy on space? I'm not sure if I did my expansion properly?

I started with a 2tb and a 3tb
so I had 2 TB.

Than I expanded with another 2TB,
so I had 4TB
Than I popped in a 4th drive, 3TB
Not I have 5.4TB?...

I realize drive's are not true 2tb or 3tb.
but 2+2+3= 7 with true size does that really equal 5.4? or should I be seeing a big more space? It seems like that 3TB I added at the end only gave me 2?

==RESULTS (Will go below):==

Disk Space with Raid 5 [base 10]: 7000.000 GB = 7.000 TB
Final Volume Size with Raid 5 [base 2]: 6462.583 GB = 6.412 TB

Appears so.

That's what I came up with as well. Odly enough Raidar shows them as 2/3/2/3 yet still only act's like I have all 2TB drives.

I realize I have an 8TB expansion limit, but I'm no where near that.

Although I have not run a reboot since the expansion, maybe I should do that?

Yes. Give it a try.
