Hi All,
I've an 5big2 with 5x500GB HDs and i'm searching a tutorial to create RAID 5.
Where i can find it?
I've search into the forum but i can't found nothing or the site shows me a message that i can't see that page.....
i'm trying to instal fvdw-sl 17.0

if you use fvdw-sl 17-0 then you can use the web interface to create raid5

if you use fvdw-sl 16-1 or 16-1 you can use the raid tutorials in the firmware/download topic https://plugout.net/viewforum.php?f=7

Actually they are in the "archives" sub topic in that topic

after upgrade to 17-0 in the disk setup menu (there is a button: make raid volume)

No you can use no longer the manual way and I removed the tutorials. Indeed if you use these tutorials, you create a raid with settings not optimized.

I am not a MAC user but I think you will find how to connect to your AFP share here: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT204445
