Areca 1882ix Raid 0 Size Problem

[Tutto]

I created a Raid 0 using 6x Vertex 4 128GB drives that shows up in the controller setup as being 720GB but it should be 768GB. On reboot the controller and windows setup show the size to be 670GB. My 1882-12 shows everything the way it should be. I thought it might be a memory issue so I replaced the 4G module with the original 1G one but nothing changed. I think I have a bad controller?

I bought this controller from NewEgg as an open box item. The previous owner had set Disk Capacity Truncation Mode to Multiples of 10G. After I changed it to No Truncation the sizes are showing up as they should.

You'd think refurbished would have meant a "Factory Default" was done

10GB truncation is the areca default. It just doesnt mean much when people use 1 TB drives and what not because its still usualloy <1GB because it like rounds to the nearest 10GB up or below 1TB (if 1 TB drives).
