RAID Calculator
You can use our RAID calculator to determine how much available disk space you can get with any number of disk drives in various RAID configurations.
Enter the Number of Disks you want to use in the array and the Size of the Disks to Use for this RAID array. Then select RAID Level. Both the total array size and the actual available disk space will appear in the following boxes.
