This is a massive array of disks and the G-RAID software allowed me to configure the storage pretty much as I desired. I';ve been using RAID arrays both professionally (I'm a retired software developer) and at home for almost 2 decades now, so I'm pretty knowledgeable about RAID in all its many variants. I split the disks into 2 4-disk arrays, one for data and the other for Time Machine backups of my four Mac computers. The data array is a single logical drive while the backup array is divided into 4 logical disks, each sized according to the storage on the individual Mac's. All logical drives are configured as RAID 6 because I've had a double drive failure in the past (not on a SanDisk array). This protects against data loss even with two drive failures occurring before the first failed drive can be replaced. So far, my only complaint is that the G-RAID Software Utility could use a local Help facility, and perhaps tooltips, to explain the various constraints on configuring the arrays and logical disks.
