All,
I am trying to set up a FreeNAS box, but am unsure of which HDD configuration to go with. My goal is to have two 'volumes' (?) with 6TB each, that are mirrored.
My HDD are as follows:
Two 3TB (toshiba)
Two 2TB (WD)
Two 1TB (??-in use)
It is my understanding that I can put one of each size HDD in each volume, and mirror them. I'm just not sure which configuration options, and I've never done RAID before. I have a core2quad, 6gb RAM, gigabyte MB. Thanks for any assistance!!
