Raid Question

by drmweaver . Updated 21 years, 2 months ago

I’m looking at buying a snap server with 4 120 Gig drives for a total of 480 gigs. This is Raid 5 striping and parity and raid 1 mirroring.

Question, since this is a raid 5, would the total size change or would there actually be 480 gigs of available space?

Thanks. Just trying to understand how this raid stuff works.
