File size on disk

(1/2) > >>

Hello,
I just installed a DNS-340L NAS with 4 disk (4TB each)
I have create the volume in RAID0 or JBOD, but each time the block size on disk is 4GB.
A simple file takes 1 byte 3,99Go disk.
I try to create 2 volumes of 8TB (with EXT4 format that normally have a 4k block size).
How to reduce this size ?
I have found no information on ShareCenter

Thanks for your help

Good evening,
Nobody knows how to do?
Is the drives or the NAS level ?
Thank you

A couple of questions.
1)  are the drives you are using on the DNS-340L comparability list?
2)  do you have any data files that are larger than 4 TB?

Regarding the questions. 
1) if they are NOT on the comparability list it could be the reason for the problem you are seeing.
2) if you don't have data files larger than 4 TB have you tried setting the disks up as STANDARD (individual disks) volumes and what are the results?
Another thing, if your data is valuable it would be wise hot to use a disk configuration that could lose all that data if there is a problem with one disk.  We never setup a clients NAS box with any RAID array other than RAID 1 even when there is a reliable backup strategy in place.

thank you for your reply

The disks are in the compatibility list (Seagate ST4000VN000 4GB)
I formatted the disk to try several types of RAID. He only has a few files over a few MB and 2GB
I just formatted in standard mode. It's the same thing.
But the indication is made by Windows 10. Is it accurate?
How to know the exact NAS occupation?
Thank you
