just a word of advice.
RAID5 on arrays over 2TB is a source of data corruption. RAID5 will protect from single failure. The problem is you might hit dual silent failure with RAID5 over 2TB, as Hard Disk Drive may have badblock and 2TB is this special size, which gives risk of hitting badblock on one HDD at the same time when other will fail.
You have rise this risk a lot by using 8 HDDs.
To make matter worse you used consumer grade HDDs, which may fail your array at rebuild time, by simply trying forever to read single block - RAID Controller would see it as HDD have hunged or have been removed.
I have had consumer grade HDD which were going into hard lock on reading badblock, only power cycle was resolving issue
you have been warned

1. use RAID6
2. use enterprise grade HDDs for RAID5/6
