Hi Guys,
Newb here to freeNAS. I am looking at replacing my Synology 816, running SHR, which is at max capacity.
I bought some gear, and am wondering on mixing drive sizes. I have read I can create separate pools (which I need to figure out), etc, but trying to get updated info (thats not a year old) just in case something changed. Also need to figure out how that works.
HP DL380p g8 (2x E5-2640, 32-64GB ram (right now it has 32).
NetApp 4246 Disk Shelf (waiting on sas cable to come in, which I will have tomorrow)
Right now the new setup will have 3 4TB (2x WD Red, 1 Seagate WL) and 1 10TB (WD WL) Drive to start untill I am stable and move all data over. Am I able to mix drive sizes like I did in Synology/Drobo?
Thanks
Will
