Nas4Free Drive Capacity Not Working

I just configured a Avamar ADS Gen 3 Server and am unable to use the full raid drives storage amount.

In the server I have 6x 1TB WD Red Drives. They are setup through an Dell Perc 6I Raid Controller in RAID 5.

Nas4Free is the OS I'm using, It shows a 4TB Drive when Adding it. This makes sense because its RAID and the formatting.

Although When Viewing the drives total size in the menu it shows up at 500GB. Any Ideas would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance.

 

Stats:

CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5504 @ 2.00GHz

RAM: 32 GB DDR3 Ram

OS: Nas4Free 11.0.0.4

Drives: 6x 1TB WD Red

RAID Controller: Dell Perc 6I

RAID Config: RAID 5

Model: Avamar Gen 3

Don't use raid 5 on the hardware if you useing nas4free or freenas. Make them jbod and use raid in zfs. Its better than hardware raid
