So i have a HP Microserver and i put a 500GB Seagate drive in and FreeNas just to become accustom to it before i go buy more drives.
So i made a dataset and a user, had some permissions issues but got that resolved, so i went about copying 100GB of files to a folder, it then tells me i am 37+GB short but its a clear 500GB drive?
I assume I am mossing something very basic but any assistance is appreciated.
Also one further basic question but my share is showing up as a folder, can i not just have the entire drive appear similar to drives connected to my main machine as with this i can also see drive space left and at present I cannot
