I have always belived that if you have 5 hard drives 1 50gb second 50gb third 20gb fourth 60gb firth 30gb that the largest would then be the size of the smallest disk, not 80 or 100 or 120 for that matter or am I wrong here?
Well, wrt to R5, yes. If the array is spanned across different disks, it must use the smallest size and leave unused space for the remainder on the larger disks..
