Thanks for the thoughts both. I thought I would give it a try on Unraid 6.12 and saw the reservation reduce by ~200GB per drive as shown below. Interesting, This would be the same position as the rest of the community upgrading existing disks from their 6.X instance upon upgrade to 7? An additional thought, does that mean 6.x to 7.x upgraded users will have a mix of xfs version disks within their array when they add their next disk post upgrade?

So glad I found his post and could read into what I am seeing this evening on my new 16tb drives creating XFS- encrypted formats on Unraid 7 and "losing" 306GB per drive: Please forgive the newbie queries: 1.) The manual format command setting crc to 0 now reports the below warning. Is this something those chosing to apply crc=0 may encounter as a blocking issue for supporting their drives in future Unraid versions? 2.) Are there additional steps to establish the crc=0 format and use the xfs encryption filesystem? 3.) If I deployed my new NAS under 6.12 formatting under xfs there and then upgraded to 7, would I see the more modest space reservations discussed earlier in the thread?
