I searched the forums, and haven't come up with an answer that makes sense. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this.
I just created a new RAIDZ1-0 array of 4 6TB disks. I expected the total available space to be about 6TB x 3 disks = 18TB (one drive for parity, aka RAID5). Sure enough, the volume displays as 16.4TB, which is about right (rounding errors in 1024 vs 1000).
However, the dataset that got created is showing only 11.4TB available. Somehow it lost another 4 TB! It's almost like it's a RAID 10 now.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
