Max disk size DL360 G9

We have a Proliant DL360 Gen9 server with 8 2.5" bays.  We have installed 4 
x 2TB drives which we mirrored with RAID0.  We should have close to 4TB 
after mirroring and overhead but we only have 1.7TB

I scoured the net but there seems to be conflicting information.  Some sites 
say that we can use any size drives, some say the 2TB is the maximum and one 
site says that 1TB is the maximum but only for 2.5" drives.  I don't 
understand why the form factor should matter.

Does anyone have some true facts?

Thanks in advance.
