(SOLVED) New array, 400GB used space

[belupig]

Greetings,

 

Here is what I have done so far:

[*]Finished building the server using old desktop parts

[*]Put 4 x 14TB and 1 x 12TB in and precleared (1 cycle, 2 drives at a time)

[*]Selected parity disk and data disk on Main menu

[*]Created a new unRAID array

[*]Formatted Data disk. Filesystem types are left as the default xfs.

[*]Aborted formatting process as I thought that was unnecessary 

[*]Formatted Disk 1-4 as btrfs

[*]Formatted Disk 1-4 as xfs

 

Currently the array does not contain any personal data, and the parity build/sync has completed. The used space is at 400GB which seem fairly high. I tried reformatting disk 1-4 as btrfs and the used space is 22.6gb. I then re-formatted disk 1-4 back to xfs and I am still seeing 400GB used space. I have attached screenshot of my Main and Dashboard as well as the diagnostics.zip, any help is much appreciated!

 

Cheers,

Belu

It is but it's normal with current xfs.
