System is a Xeon E3-1275v3, 2x 2GB ECC, LSI 9261-8i with BBU, 4x 4TB WD Red's in RAID-5, Server 2012 R2.
Disk space is getting full, so I plan on adding an additional 4x 4TB WD Red's. But instead of having two 4 disk RAID-5 arrays, a single 8 disk RAID-6 solution seems better.
Any thoughts/comments?
