4.4.1
User Capacity of Drives
Table 4.6
shows the user capacity for each drive.

*1:
The capacity that is listed above for the product names of the drives is based on the assumption that 1MB = 1,000
bytes, while the user capacity per drive is based on the assumption that 1MB = 1,024
management overhead will reduce the actual usable capacity.
The user capacity does not change even when the drive sizes (2.5"/3.5") are different, or whether or not the drive is
encryption-compliant (SED).
4.4.2
User Capacity for Each RAID Level
The user capacity depends on the capacity of drives that configure a RAID group and the RAID level.
Table 4.7
shows the formula for calculating the user capacity for each RAID level.
