Alright here's a quick rundown, I have 5 drives in a RaidZ2 array. I had 2x500GB 2x1TB and 1x2TB. I replaced a 500GB with a 1TB and resilvered but the maximum storage did not increase.

Am I missing something here or do I need to replace the other 500GB as well?

Thanks,

With RAIDZ2, the smallest drive determines the available space. It sounds like you still have a 500G drive in the VDEV which means the storage space won't expand.

Cheers,
Matt

Thank's a bunch man, I pretty much assumed that based on the whole situation but I wanted to be sure before any time was wasted.
