256! That's incredible. I don't understand how that works. But that's cool. I'll take the risk then. Thank you.

I see in the FAQ/manual that beyond 4 drives a second parity drive is recommended. I just upgraded from split parity. I now have 6x8TB drives. I plan to use 5 of them for data. Anyone know what would happen if I had a single drive failure? Just some of the data would be recoverable? I don't love the idea of what will and what won't be recovered.

I recently added a drive to my setup. Went from 3 to 4 8TB data drives. I have split parity with 4x 2tb drives. I had to move some drives in my case and the first scrub after a sync gave a bunch of errors. It told me to use the fix command, which I did and it said no errors were detected. I then did another sync just to be sure things were good, that completed properly. Wanted to scrub again to be sure all was well and got a bunch of errors. I am currently running the recommended fix command again....
