以下是官網的說明:

文章中提到諸多 SHR 的優點及可擴充性, 但到底加入硬碟後, SHR/SHR2 原本的 raid 組態是如何變化的? 這裡做了一些小實驗.
利用手上的 ds916+ 4 bay NAS, 測試了一下.
一開始的組態為 240GB, 240GB, 120GB 共三顆 SSD 組 SHR.
以下為 dump raid 組態, 可以看出實際上空間配置為
120GB*3 (raid5) + 120GB*2(raid1) (這是大略粗估空間)

將第三顆 120gb ssd 更換為較大容量的 480GB 時. 空間配置發生了變化.
120GB*3 (raid5) 這部份維持. 但原本的 120GB*2(raid1) 因為新加入的 480GB 有更大的空間可利用, DSM 自動擴充為 120GB*3(raid5).

由上述可以看出, 透過 SHR/SHR2 在使用不同容量硬碟組 raid 時, 確實能夠依據不同容量去試著組合出較多可利用空間.
但如同原廠所言, 並不是一定要採用 SHR, USER 同樣可以依據自身的偏好去選擇傳統的 raid mode. 另外 SHR/SHR2 也並非 Synology 獨家特殊模式, 你可以把它視為 DSM 付予了它自動化管理的能力, 但它仍然是 Linux 系統既已支援的 raid 模式. 不少人誤以為 SHR 只有 Synology NAS 自家才能讀取的說法也並不正確.
