RAID 5: 3TB raw storage, how much usable can I expect?
Been trying to figure this out through googling, have gotten conflicting answers:
I have an external RAID tower with 6x500GB drives, so 3TB raw. If I go RAID 5, I should have 2.5TB usable space, right? And then when I initialize in Disk Utility will I lose just a little bit of space or a whole lot more?
I'm having issues after striping the RAID; the software reads 2.5TB usable but Disk Utility only shows 2TB usable when I format it. Someone has told me that's all I should expect, but that doesn't seem right -- losing a third of my storage??
I've been checking the math and I think you guys are right: 2.5TB of raw space in RAID 5 minus 20% for formatting is 2TB on the nose.
The RAID 5 should format to approximately 2.2TB with six 500GB hard disks.
If the RAID volume only shows 2TB my guess is that either the driver has a 2TB limit or when you configured the RAID with the web manager over 2TB support was not selected.
The Areca cards have this same limitation. You have to set the web manager to support volumes over 2TB when configuring the RAID set.
Have fun!

How Much Credit Can I Expect on Disability?
Hey, everyone! I have spent the last 9 or 10 weeks cleaning up my credit reports and was approved on 6/30/15 for a Capital One Platinum credit card with a $300 limit for average credit. And, I was wondering if y'all could give your thoughts on what kind of credit lines I can expect to see as time goes on? Barring anything else negetive getting on my credit reports and squashing all of the hard work I have put in.....with an annual income of $8,796, what can I realistically work towards? Thank You

I am going to try to GW the two collections when they are paid off. My scores right now are: EQ 548EX 515TU 563(This is through Credit Check Total site) Ok.. Right now, keep working on your baddies as your scores are pretty low. Read up although you are only looking for 3k in credit. Once you have done what you said you will do above, pull your real FICOs and see what they are. Although you want that small amount in credit, you want it on decents cards. Also, if you have not done so already check out the rebuilding sub-section on here. It has a wealth of info. -
How much data can 256GB Flash storage hold?
How much data can a 256GB Flash storage hold? The only reason I haven't gone ahead with my purchase is that I'm worried that 256GB is too little. I wish it were possible to upgrade to 512GB on the base model.
Depends on what you're gonna put in it.

How much longer can an iMac G5 stay relevant?
I have a 2ghz iMac G5 that I bought 6 years ago from Apple refurbished. It's been a great computer and it's still going.
The OS is stuck at 10.5.8 and obviously I have not been able to upgrade to Snow Leopard or Lion. I have the latest iTunes 10.5, but no iCloud support.
But, it stil works. I am hesitant to get rid of it. It's starting to really get slow with the internet as no major browsers are still being updated for it. Safari is stuck at 5.0.6, Firefox at 3.6.23.
How much longer should I expect to keep using it? Thoughts?I suggest you keep using it whilst it still does what you want. I use my 2002 Powerbook G4 most days (even if just as an ad-hoc WiFi router for my iPad). My 2003 iMac G4 does service only as a TV and iTunes player in the kitchen.
Most iCloud features are easily replicated with other free services; Dropbox for cloud storage and a Google account for calendars, contacts and IMAP email would be my initial recommendations.
With regards to the internet speed there is no magic bullet, but keep to the minimum the number of tabs you have open at any time in Safari/FF and install ClickToFlash - Flash being a common resource hog on the internet - you'll only miss a few animated/noisy adverts and if something you want to view in Flash you can click it to load Flash at that point.

How much Ram can I add to my MacBook Pro?
Another non-techie here with a memory question
How much RAM can I add to my MacBook

Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB

How much ram can my MBP support?
First of all, there are two slots for RAM in a MBP, right?
Is there a limit to how much each can support, and a total limit for both?
I just discovered an article on DIGG about 8 GB sticks of RAM, and it got me thinking.The actual amount of RAM depends on the specific model, since you don't mention that, it's impossible to tell.
However, I can tell you that currently the most any MacBook Pro supports is 4GB of RAM - two 2GB DIMMs.
I don't know the Digg article you're referring to, but it's highly unlikely that it's referring to laptop memory. It's likely to be full-sized DIMMs where space and power consumption are less important factors (all laptops use low-profile DIMMs which consume less power and take up less space than DIMMs used in desktop computers). -
How much ram can my iMac take?
Hi all, just bought a iMac a few days ago and I'm just wondering how much ram can it take as I want to upgrade it. It didnt come with a manual, so I don't know.
Here's the spec so far
Early 2008 20"
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT 128 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
Thanks for any help in advanceThere are two answers: the official Apple answer and the "you're on your own" answer.
1 - For the official iMac max RAM, see iMac Memory specifications and upgrades
2 - For the "your're on your own" answer, everymac.com has a list of the Actual Maximum RAM you can put in every model Mac. In many cases this is more than the official maximum RAM.
After deciding how much RAM you want to put in your iMac, I suggest going to Crucial.com and use the memory advisor or system scanner to see what RAM modules are compatible with your iMac. -
How much ram can a macbook pro 2GHz Intel Core i7 Handle
Wanting to upgrade my RAM and need to know how much it can handle. HOpefully someone can answer this for me
Be sure you buy from a reputable Mac-friendly supplier as Macs are notoriously sensitive to memory. Two of the best are Crucial and OWC, http://www.macsales.com
They stand behind their products, have great support, and on-line videos on doing the installation. -

How much memory can I install in my mac book pro?
Mac book pro 2.4 GHz late 2011 i7....How much memory can I install? Currently have 4Gb but want to run Win 7 on VMware and want to make sure my user has enough
The position of Apple is that the Late 2011 can take 8 GB, however, OWC, http://www.macsales.com and Crucial, http://www.crucial.com both guarantee their 16 GB ram packages to work. Both are sellers of high quality ram that is guaranteed to work in Macs.
