Ben,
All the above is well defined: 4 bays, 1 USB connection on each end of the
cable.
Forget about drive letters. You cant rely on sda/b/c for this so set fdisk
aside.
I'm used to thinking of drive letters; have done so for ~40 years.
The RAID drives seem to be doing okay.
To make life simpler for myself, now and later, I'll wipe the two 2TiB
drives and install ext4 on each which will be mounted as /data2 and /data3
since no spatial data file I have (or likely will have) will be anywhere
near that size.
Thanks,
Rich
