I want to set up a new F8 Plus in 5 drive R5 or TRAID config. The bootloader & OS takes up space on 2 of my NVMe drives reducing the overall pool size. I'm using all 4TB drives and have 3 slots free. Does it make sense to install a smaller drive, perhaps 1TB for the bootloader and keep all of my 4TB drives free for my RAID array? This still leaves me 2 slots for future expansion. This is brand new and I have no data so I can rebuild it if warranted.
Thanks,
Dave
P.S. Love your videos, they helped me decide on which NAS to get and are helping me set it.
