New to Unraid...initial setup questions

[rbarr110]

I have been watching all kinds of videos etc on an Unraid setup.  I am in unraid and can assign drives.  However, what I want to do, I don't know how or see a way to do it.

 

I want to setup drive for drive parity.  Example...

(2) 20 TB drives

(2) 10 TB drives

(2) 4 TB SSD's

 

I want each of the drives be a parity/backup of each of the corresponding "matching" drives where the SSD's are the cache drives.  I cannot figure out how to make each drive have it's own specific parity drive.  Any help or schooling on this is greatly appreciated.

You can't do that, parity is for the whole array.

Thank you.  After messing around for a few hours I came to that conclusion.
