Hi there,
I recently upgraded all the drives in my TS-859U-RP from 2TB to 3TB drives.
I've updated the firmware to v 3.8.3 Build 20130426
The drives I am using are Seagate ST3000VX000 drives (which I have verified are on the supported list for this device)
I am trying to set up the QNAP with RAID 5, however the total size when I build the array is always 14212.65 GB, not 19396.99 GB like I would expect with 8 X 3TB drives in a RAID5 (I have an 869U-RP as well running the same drives in RAID5 with no issues)
I thought maybe it was using EXT3, but I rebuilt again with EXT4 and I get the same result.
I have to be doing something wrong... any ideas?
Thanks
I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
