The storage capacity is the aggregate for DATA and RECO disk groups. The raw capacity is based on disk
hardware terabytes (TB = 10004 bytes). The estimated usable storage capacity is calculated by converting disk
hardware terabytes into software storage terabytes (TB = 10244 bytes), and accounts for 15% reserved space
required to restore full redundancy in case of disk failure (not applicable to the two-drive configuration). The
high redundancy values in the table describe the space needed to recover from one failure only.
