Max size of logical disk

Max size of logical disk

I use 3 RA4100's and Virtual Replicator 3.0B to make 2Tb disks. One of the RA4100's contains 12x72.8GB disks. When I make a raid5 array+spare, I expect to be able to make 1 logical drive of aproxm 728 Gb.
Seemingly I can make a logical drive with max size of 514072 Mb. I have to make a second logical drive to use the remaining storage.

Is there a limit to the size of a logical drive?

Re: Max size of logical disk

Hello M.
I have checked the documentation I have about the RA4100, but it does not mention any logical disk size limits.

On the other hand this number is about 2^20 * 512 Bytes or 512 (computer)GigaBytes or 538(marketing) GigaBytes, so it looks indeed like an implementation limitation on the RA4100.
