I'm currently using a Synology DS1019+ with SHR setup. I started with 2x 10TB and 3x 4TB drives, giving me 20TB of storage. But, one of my 4TB drives failed, so I needed a replacement.
After checking out Synology's Raid Calculator, I decided to swap the failed 4TB drive with an 8TB one and also upgrade the other two 4TB drives to 8TB. The calculator said I'd get 34TB of storage.
But, after installing the new drives, my pool size didn't change at all! I'm not sure if the Raid calculator misled me or if I messed up somehow.
Any advice would be much appreciated! ?
Cheers,
Richard
