Notes |
- Usable capacity for each volume will be lower than the maximum volume size and is dependent on the filesystem and the amount of system metadata stored.
- When Peta Volume is enabled, validated services and packages are required. Please refer to this article for more information on limitations.
- Actual maximum storage pool and volume sizes depend on drive sizes used, the number of drive bays available, and the RAID configuration.
- Volumes over 108 TB require 32 GB of memory or more.
