August 30, 20196 yr New user here Im slowly migrating files to my array and noticed something weard that I cant seem to find any info on, perhaps you guys have the answer. I have 4x 4TB discs in my array, 2 parity, 2 data. the first data disc is full, unraid shows it as being 4TB in size and has used 3.68TB and has 322GB free, added togeather those vales add up to 4TB. is there some way to make Unraid actually show the true capacity of the disc instead of the size on the label? I do not understand how a full disc could be showing as part empty, regardless of what number system your useing to calculate the size, if the disc is full it should say so right? Any help would be awesome as this is doing my head in.

Its set to fill one drive before it starts filling the second. The second drive is 42% full now. Shouldn't it fill up the first drive before starting on the second?
August 30, 20196 yr I dont understand what you mean by show the true capacity.4TB is the capacity of the drive. Unless you're thinking of a 4TB drive is actually 3.6 TB because that unit that windows uses is incorrect and should be 3.6 TiBSent from my NSA monitored device
August 30, 20196 yr Depends how much 'minimum free space' you set for the share before it moves onto the next one i'd think. Edited August 30, 20196 yr by superloopy1
