Background
Two 320GB 2.5" disks setup as a RAID 0 pool, total available space as expected (640GB) used as CCTV storage using beta30. (I'm going to wait until I have to disconnect the server to update to 35).
However, I've noticed that the CCTV camera stops recording once the disk is "full", i.e. 638GB of 640GB used.
I thought I'd messed up the config so I deleted the pool, wiped the drives and then configured another RAID 0 pool, again 640GB available.
However the CCTV cameras have now stopped recording...
Looking closer... (this is after I've started a balance), RAID0 line showed a total of 2GB before the start...
Data, RAID1: total=293.00GiB, used=293.00GiB
Data, RAID0: total=6.12GiB, used=4.06GiB
System, RAID1: total=32.00MiB, used=64.00KiB
Metadata, RAID1: total=1.00GiB, used=342.30MiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=337.02MiB, used=0.00B
Why is SMB and UnRAID UI stating 640GB available, yet the data is being recorded in RAID1 mode??
Have I messed up the config here again, or is there a bug?
Edit: Nothing obvious in the logs relating to either the disks, the pool itself or SMB giving a write error. Also cancelled the balance and hit the 'convert to RAID 0' mode which seems to be balancing the disks again.
Edit 2: I've deleted data off the drives, hit the convert to RAID 0 button, once that's finished I'll let the CCTV record again.
