I wanted to use a Storage Space, but mixing SATA and USB 3.0 in a Storage Space led to some abysmal write speeds. So I broke my 3TB mirror, put one of them where my optical drive normally is, and moved all 4 5TB drives into the case, in a RAID 10. That takes me from 5TB usable (2x1TB RAID 0, 2x3TB RAID 1) to 10TB usable, so it&#8217;s going to be nearly halfway full out the gate. Here&#8217;s hoping there are some higher densities on the horizon before I fill up the other half.<\/p>\n<p>Copying 5TB of files blows.
