On 5 2tb drives, shows right size in drives area.
Only shows as "detected" in the drives area, should it show as "ok"?
I only seem to be getting 7.444 total capacity.
About 6.5 after formatting. Shouldn't I have more space?
Thanks!

Well 2TB drives are ~1900GB, and RAID-5 uses ~20%of your total capacity for the stripe...so 7,444GB is correct.
I just got my N5200XXX setup yesterday with 5x2tb drives (1,907,729MB) in RAID-5.
In the RAID management section I can see a total capacity of "7444.2GB" but Data Capacity shows "6977 GB".
Data has been set to 100%, when I map the drive in Windows 7 it shows a total size of 6.81GB. HOWEVER if i view properties on the mapped drive I get "7,491GB" which is the capacity I should have.
Is this just a reporting issue with the current firmware (V5.01.00.8)?
greybard : can you see if you get the correct space details when viewing the properties of a mapped drive?
(And yes it should only say detected...or more like it does the same on mine)
