JBOD maximum disk capacity
« on: December 25, 2011, 10:05:28 PM »
Hello,

I have setup my NAS drive with a 3TB HDD and 1 TB HDD with JBOD configuration. I can also see that it recognized it when I go to System Status -> Hard drive Info. However, when I go to System status -> System Info - > Volume Info, it shows:

Volume Type    JBOD
Total Hard Drive Capacity    1769318 MB

Why did it shrink my 4 TB to 1.7 TB? HELP Please :o

Hi,
First question is are you running the latest 2.02 firmware?  If not use it.  Second question is was the 3TB drive raw or pre-formated in windows before you installed it.  If it was, try putting it back in a windows machine and use disk manager to delete the volume and then reinstall it in the 320.  That is assuming you don't have a ton of data on there already.  That is about all I can think of right now.  Good luck.

Thank you; that worked. I had old firmware, but upgrading did not help. The I tried to put it in raw format and used Standard volume type. I have'nt tried JBOD yet, but Ias of now Standard volume will do the trick.
