Question on disk space avail RAID 0
I am confused, hope you can help - I have 2 2TB disk drives configured as RAID 0. This is confirmed in Intel RST. RST says 3815 GB total size, roughly 4 TB available, which is what I would expect as RAID 0 supposedly makes available the sum of the drives in the array as its size.
But File Explorer in Windows 10 Pro confuses me - it basically says 2 TB is the size. I might assume it is just wrong, but the "used" space is around 1/2 TB, which is what I believe the actual size used really is.
I have 3 questions:
1) Is this just an error in File Explorer on the space reported?
2) How much space do I have left? File Explorer says 1.5 TB, I would hope it is 3.5 TB.
3) Is there a utility or way I can get an accurate report of space truly used, free and total if File Explorer is unable to handle RAID 0 arrays?
thanks!
