Usable space after raid configuration - PS-M4110XV
hi all
I cannot find a document which shoes roughly usable space available after raid configuration on a array (PS-M4110XV in my case). Only doc I found was - EqualLogic PS Series Storage Arrays: Choosing a Member RAID Policy
Basically a cloud provider is installing 3x PS-M4110XV, with 14x 300Gb 15K each and configuring as RAID50.
My understanding is that the configuration will be (6+1 6+1), i.e. 2x set of 6x drives + 2x hot spares = 14x drives in total.
I am just trying to work out how much available space we will have on each array.
Comments are appreciated.

hi Don,
thanks for the reply....the cloud providers are telling us that 2.7TB will be available though....considering they were not aware that only 2x PS-4110XV can be in a group, I am not too confident on their info....
