Does anyone know how to emulate RAID6 in software on Windows server using 4 disks? The solution must provide for the failure of any two disks (like RAID-6 in Linux).
Thank you, Joe

Double parity storage spaces is the closest built-in solution to what you ask. It can tolerate loss of two disks. But this is not exactly RAID 6 in terms of performance. Write performance will be limited to performance of one disk.

"...using 4 disks". Storage spaces wants 7 disks! – user308958 Aug 27 '18 at 21:28
