Frequently Asked Questions
We support SHR (Synology Hybrid RAID), RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, and RAID 10. Each has different requirements for minimum number of drives and fault tolerance.
For SHR, you can mix drive sizes; the smallest drive is used for parity. For other RAID types, it is recommended to use identical drives for optimal performance and capacity.
The calculator supports up to 24 drives. However, actual Synology models may have different limits; check your NAS specifications.
