Do DSS-32TB support 1.5TB x 24 HDD

[logiqit]

Dear ALL

I am configuring a DSS-32TB solution which is using 1.5TB SATA HDD x 24 with two 3Ware RAID Adapters(Each 3Ware control 1.5TB SATA x 12).
But the 1.5TB x 24 is 36TB, can DSS-32TB detected it? or I have to use DSS-64TB license?

Hi Andy,

Chances are that your 1.5TB disks onlly have about 1.36TB or so of actual space.

You know harddisk manufacturers cheat in their numbering, so you never get the actual space that you pay for. I have Seagates 1.5 TB disks in my workstation, and they are 1.36TB under Windows XP.

1.36 x 24 = 32.64 TB just above the 32TB unfortunately.
