Hello,

I've searched high and low about my issue, but have been unable to
turn up anything like what I'm seeing right now.

A little background: I started using BTRFS over a year ago, in RAID 1
with mixed size drives. A few months ago, I started replacing the
disks with 4 TB drives, and eventually switched over to RAID 6. I am
currently running a 6x4TB RAID6 drive configuration, which should give
me ~14.5 TB
usable, but I'm only getting around 11.

The weird thing is that It seems to completely fill 4/6 of the disks,
while leaving lots of space free on 2 of the disks. I've tried full
filesystem balances, yet the problem continues.

Can anyone shed some light on why a full balance (sudo btrfs balance
start /mnt/data) doesnt seem to straighten this out? Any and all help
is appreciated.


Thanks!
