My advice! Don't! 9 disks in R5 = 8+1 = 14.4 TB! In the case one disk is faulty, what will be the time needed for rebuild? Days? How many?

What will happen in the case another disk is going down during the time needed for rebuild?

What do you want? Space? Go with R6 and one spare! You will have 10.8 TB to use!

What do you want? Speed? Go with R10 with one spare!
