Estimate usable TB, parity overhead, and fault tolerance for 10x 14TB in RAID 10. Includes reserve planning for NAS and homelab arrays.
Raw Capacity
140.00 TB
Usable Capacity
63.00 TB
Fault Tolerance
1 drive per mirror pair*
Efficiency
50.0%
Excellent random I/O and rebuild behavior; capacity is typically 50% of raw. This scenario applies a 10% filesystem reserve.

| RAID 6 | 100.80 TB | 2 drives | 80.0% |
| RAID 10 | 63.00 TB | 1 drive per mirror pair* | 50.0% |
| RAID-Z1 | 113.40 TB | 1 drive | 90.0% |
| RAID-Z2 | 100.80 TB | 2 drives | 80.0% |
This setup can tolerate 1 drive per mirror pair*. Real-world survivability depends on mirror placement, rebuild stress, and drive health.
No. Use this page for pre-purchase sizing, then validate with workload benchmarks, SMART health policy, and a tested restore plan.
For long-lived NAS pools, resiliency first is usually safer. Capacity can be expanded later, while a risky parity choice can force migration sooner.
This NAS planning scenario estimates 63.00 TB usable after a 10% reserve from 140.00 TB raw.
