Noob to Alt F tried to find solution in documentation.

Sorry if this is an easy fix but I feel like im missing something here. 

DNS-321-Ax was working fine for some time now, had both drives working independantly then decided to RAID 0 them to better organize (2TB and 1 TB)

used the wizard and created an MD0 then tried to give RW permissions to all users but still when i try to access it from any windows PC on my network it will only show as 30MB of space. i'm sure im missing a step but i cant figure out what it is no matter how many times i go through the beginner documentation. i can provide screen shots and documentation if needed.

Easy fix? Possibly.
It might sound illogical, but what Windows can see is nothing (directly) do do with your disk configuration.
It IS all down to whatever you share in the smb configuration within the "Network/Services" page. Click "Configure" and check what  you have in "Folders to export to other hosts", each 'folder' must map to a real place on a mounted volume.
Once you have verified (or corrected!) that aspect of your setup, check in your "Disk/Quotas" page to see if any quotas have been setup.
Finally, you may need to flush the Windows cache by dismounting the share and re-mounting it again.
I have sometimes needed to reboot (Windows, not the NAS!) between these steps.

If you have already done all this, or doing so does not fix it, I'll go back to sleep again :-)

ok so i tried all 3 of the solutions presented and still didnt get anywhere. 

i've used the browse function to add all the folders i can see to the SMB configure

I've made sure the folders had the correct permissions in the folders page. 

and for the quotas i dont have the option to for that on DISK, so its possible im on an older version? i dont know. i know the users tab has a quotas button but its grayed out, 

Perhaps im missing something else? here is my status page, dunno if that adds anything

Also i did delete and reconnect the drive in windows between each of these steps.

Do you have the wsdd2 package installed and enabled?  Go to Packages -> Alt-F and install it if it is not already installed and running.  It is needed for Windows 10/11 systems to be able to see the Samba shares.  Once installed, go to Services -> Network and make sure that the wsdd2 service is boot enabled and running.
