The value displayed is the default size of the logical drive that can be created using the number of logical drives set in the previous screen based on the unused region space. If you are creating an even number of logical drives from an odd size value the remaining unused space is made available as unused space from which another separate logical drive can be created. For example, if you have a fault tolerant array with unused region of 143 GB and you create 2 logical drives from that unused space, you will have two logical drives each with 71 GBs. After you create the logical drives and view the unused region you will see the remaining 1 GB available for use in another logical drive.
When you are prompted to save the configuration, select Yes, then press ENTER.
