RAID1, Two 3TB drives - Not enough disk space???

I'm trying to configure RAID1 on my XPS8700.  Both drives are identical, and the primary drive only has 337GB of used space (2.3 TB free).  The secondary drive is brand new with nothing on it.

While trying to configure RAID1, I'm getting a message that says there's not enough disk space on the primary drive.  (Are you kiddin me?  There's 2.3TB of free space.)

Any suggestions?

Thx in advance.

Hi Prom3th3us,

What is the file system and size of the existing partitions? And what is the exact model of both drives?
