Expansion question

[Flussig]

Hi, I'm wondering if I am able to add a 14tb into this configuration or does it need to be a 16tb like the other 4? Thanks

To expand this SHR-2 pool will require at least a 16TB drive. If bigger than 16TB then the additional space won’t become available until you add other bigger drives.

Thanks, I thought that would be the case
