I think RAID 10 is after RAID 4/5. They are coming.

RAID 5 is what most users want, so it has highest priority.

I would l think it is a bit less technical than getting RAID5 working.

Its hard to predict technical Software like this, but I still think we may hit end of year. RAID 5 for Windows has to be 100% solid, as user data is stored on these volumes, hence no shortcuts!

We do not yet have support for RAID 5 on Windows.

 

It is coming this year, probably in the next couple months, but I do not have a date. It will work fine as RAID 1, RAID 0, or as a set of independent disks in the meantime.

Any update on support for RAID 5 and 1+0 support in Windows? Not many months left in 2021... 🤨

If so, the volume should mount automatically.

However, I work on a PC workstation and when I plug the RAID into my PC, it won't pop up on explorer as a drive. Instead, I only see the separate drives when I need to safely remove them.

On my Mac, the RAID shows up as one drive, so it's working properly there.

Does anyone know how to navigate software RAIDs on a PC? Is this fixable or do I need to return the product?
