How does Open-e counts storage?

[tiber]

Hello,

Based on what (connected devices, eg. dynamic disks, spare disks, Tape drives/libraries or not assigned units, volumes , etc.) counts Open-e storage?

I'm asking about, to choose the right license!

Thanks in advance - Best,

All or any presented storage to the DSS V6 will be used and counted for, so if you have a RAID volume of 2TB (RAID 5) and a USB drive and or volume or drive used a Dynamic Unit of another 2TB then this will total to 4TB and you will need a DSS V6 4TB, we only see the usable capacity not the RAW (only in SW RAIDs do see the whole drive count. Tape drives we dont count for.
