Drive failure larger size


Recommended Posts

Hello, I have a question regarding the Unraid array.

 

I currently have 3 x 4TB drives, 1 for parity and 2 in the array.  In the near future if one of the array drives died and I can only purchase a higher volume drive aka 8TB.  How would this react with the parity drive?  I have read the parity needs to be the largest drive etc.

 

Thank you.
