JBOD is not a RAID mode, it is also called span.
NEVER USE IT.
It has no benefit.
This is a rough break down of common RAID types
RAID 0 is stripe(needs 2 drives, storage space is equal to size of total HDDs, has performance increase at the cost of no redundancy)
RAID 1 is mirror(needs 2 drives, storage space is equal to the size of a single HDD, has redundancy at the cost of same performance)
RAID 5 is block stripe with parity(needs 3 drives, storage space is equal to the size total size -1 drive of all HDD in setup, if a drive fails you still have access to data, rebuild time can take ages in which time another failure might occur and if it happens all data is lost, write speed is a little slower due to writing parity but read speeds is fast)
RAID 6 is block stripe with double parity(needs 4 drives, same as RAID 5 but you have an extra parity drive for more redundancy, storage space is equal to the size total size -2 drive of all HDD in setup,, if a drive fails you still have access to data, rebuild time can take ages in which time another failure might occur and if it happens all data is lost, write speed is a little slower due to writing parity but read speeds is fast)
RAID 10 is mirror then stripe(needs 4 drives, storage space is equal to half of the total HDDs, has performance increase & redundancy)
Reason not to ever use span.
If you have 4 4TB HDDs.
You can span them to get 16TB with no benefit what so ever
or you can use RAID 0 and stripe them giving you 16TB and have the read and write speed increase.
Also if one drive fails in a span you lose all data, even if has no data written to it.
I have 4x4TB in a RAID 5 giving me 12TB to use
