Hi,
I have a few RAID6/mdadm related questions I've been meaning to clarify in OMV
1) Will 4TB drives work in my OMV raid array out of box, or will I run into some weird 2.2Tb limits to work around?
2) All my drives are 2TB currently, and I would like to eventually replace them all to 4TB. I understand RAID6 will use the lowest common denominator (if there is a mix of 2TB and 4TB, all will be limited to 2TB each). Once I replace the last drive to 4TB, will it automatically expand and read each drive as 4TB all of a sudden?
3) Once a drive has been unplugged (I have a wonky sata controller) and available again, do I have to rebuild the drive every time? Is there not a way for RAID to continue to use the already pre-built drive again?
Thank you!
