Inserting new HDDs into array and taking one out

Hi guys!

I've been using Unraid on my self-built server for some months and am very happy thus far: the setup is very stable and versatile and I'm learning a lot using it.

 

In terms of HDDs, I'm using a 1tb nvme ssd as cache and 12+4+2tb drives for the array. I recently bought two 8tb WD RED drives that I intend to replace the 12tb drive with. The 12tb would become the parity drive.

 

Do you agree with this setup? Does it make sense?

 

Also, how would you go about migrating the data in the 12tb drive to the 8tb drives?

 

Thanks for your input?
