damn and blast! That throws in another spanner, a rather big one, in my plans.

So the on-board sata-connector does work! How's that possible? I used the same controller as before, just that I had 4TB disks.

I think that's reading the super-block, but I'll see if I can mend that.

Hi all, For a while now I've been trying out Unraid. Initially it seemed to work just fine. However the idea was scrapped and I started over again. Now I have a new machine, where I added a 14TB drive. I wanted to use that as only data disk (with no other disks) so I can copy over my data and add the other (pairity) drive later. Anyway I start up my array with the disk as first data disk and I'm fine with formatting it. However it just fails to do so. The logs show me this: Jun 22 01:58:44 UNR kernel: mdcmd (52): nocheck pause Jun 22 01:58:46 UNR emhttpd: error: ckmbr, 2263: No such file or directory (2): open: /dev/sdd1 Jun 22 01:58:46 UNR emhttpd: writing GPT on disk (sdd), with partition 1 byte offset 32KiB, erased: 0 Jun 22 01:58:46 UNR emhttpd: shcmd (400): sgdisk -Z /dev/sdd Jun 22 01:58:46 UNR kernel: sdd: Jun 22 01:58:47 UNR root: GPT data structures destroyed!
