Hi,
I am having issues with configuring RAID 1 on 2 4TB SAS drives. If not in RAID, it shows 3075 GB for both drives after I initialize with GPT partition but as soon as set them up on RAID1, only show 2047 GB.
Does any one has any idea as why it is doing it.
thanks
Drive size quoted in one set of units, GB, but reported in another set - GiB possibly?
There will also be a bit of metadata, although that does seem a lot. What RAID controller/software are you using?
You need to enable >2TB support in the RAID BIOS (if you can!).....normally called "LBA64"
Or (again if you can, not all RAID controllers support it) you can add a new volume on the remaining TB of space.
