SCV2020 Storage Profile Raid6

Hi, adding 6 new SSD HD to our SCV2020 with firmware 7.4.21.4 and want to create Raid6 volume, the only option that is available in the console is Raid10 and we get the following error:

Insufficient number of disks to prepare storage. The system contains (5) managed and (1) spare disks and requires a minimum of (6) managed and (1) spare disks

can you please advise ?

Tnx

Buy one more disk or stay on "single redundancy which is R10/R5"  and not a "DM10/R6" (dual redundancy).

Having small disk and fast SSD its unlikely that you will face a double disk failure. With the new (you need to enable) dynamic spare feature a rebuild get way faster compared to a dedicated hotspare.
