Thanks ;)
Note that the blocks overhead is still experimental, I'm currently sorting this out on the other topic (link in the first post).
For the number of RAID groups (I assume you mean like 3 striped RAID-Z2 of 6 drives (so 18 drives total) for example?) It's not that useful because you can use the app for one RAID and then just multiply the spaces values by the number of RAIDs you have. Plus it already supports this for the mirroring RAID types :) I might (maybe, perhaps) add this in the future but I don't think it's worthwhile.
Very good idea to add the percentage values, thanks. I'll remake the UI more like a table to make things more clear (I can't add % in between parenthesis for example because there is already the TB so it would be ugly and not easily readable).
I thought about the fault tolerance but the formula is complex IIRC (and I want to finish the overhead thing before) so I've put that on future features list :)
"what you have is simple and to the point" Yeah, pretty much exactly the goal of this app: simple, clear, light, do only a short list of things but do it well, ... ;)
