1_ If I build raid 5 with 4 2 tb disc, will I have (4-1)x 2 tb = 6 tb space?
2_ Do I have to format the pc to be able to create raid 5 array? Or adding discs from matrix storage manager is enough?
3_ Is this the best way to protect personal movie,tv series archive?
4_ Lets assume I created raid 5 with 3 disc is it easy to add another disc after?
5_ I have 1 ssd, 1 tb, and 2 2tb disc, one of the 2 tb discs is full the other one is empty, Before I create raid 5 do I have to move my all data or only my data on 2 tb discs?
6_ Do I need a raid card for raid 5?
7_ What is the difference betwen software raid and hardware raid?
System spec.
