We have a 2950 and a 2970 which have 6 1TB drives each. I've set them up
with all 6 drives in RAID5 and with 4 drives RAID1 and 2 drives RAID0.
They seemed to work fine in all these
configurations.
I don't know about Dell's cart, or why they'd have that limit, but from
a technical standpoint it seems to work.
