Sorry for the dumb question, but I'm still fairly new to FreeNAS/ZFS/RAIDZ.
I just setup a RAIDZ system using 4x3TB drives. Ended up with a total of 7.63TB capacity and it felt a little off to me.
I understand the 3TB drives are actually around 2.73TB due to the whole TiB <> TB thing. By my rudimentary math, I should be around 2.73 * 3 = 8.19TB. Almost 600GB loss seems like a large overhead for the system, but like I said, I'm new so this could be normal. Am I missing something?
