This worked, thank you.

Appreciate the help! I'll give this a read.

All- my flash drive failed with my OS on it. Unfortunately my last backup was 1 year ago. I created a boot disk with the backup. Logged into local GUI and replaced key, all good, kinda. Logged into web interface and went to start the array. The issue is my back up is a year old. During this period i replaced a failed 3TB HDD with an 18TB HDD plus I also had two parities when this backup was created which my current config did not. How do I remove the unassigned parity 2 as my most current setup did not have a parity 2? -There is no option to set the parity 2 to no devise, It only wants me to select one of two available HDDs. How do I remove the 3TB HDD that I no longer exists and replace it with my 18TB HDD that has unraid data on it? -When i select the 18TB HDD to take place of the 3TB, Unraid warns: all existing data on this device will be overwritten when the array starts. -If i select no device where the 3TB HDD used to be in disk2 and select the 18TB HDD in disk 7, unraid states: you may not add a new disk and also replace an existing disk. My goal is to remove the 2nd parity which I no longer use and to mount my 18TB disk without loosing the data from it. Any help will be appreciated!

Every things is all good now trurl! thanks for the help.

Thanks trurl, I just realized you replied. I will try the link you supplied.

I just plugged my old Unraid flash drive into my laptop and copied the pluskey.KEY file over to my new Unraid 6.11.1 flash drive hoping it would just register as my plus key and override the trial. This did not work unfortunately. Back to the drawing board.

Hello, I have a bit of a dilemma I could use help with. I been using Unraid for probably 7/8 years. For the past two years my server was down and I haven't used it. Since the server was old I decided to build a new one. I finished the build today and plugged in my Unraid flash drive. I could see it boot up, but when i would type in my ip to enter the web gui i couldn't access the server. I couldn't ping it either. I found the problem was the the the dual 2.5gb intel i225 nic on my new EVGA Z690 Classified mobo was too new for the old version of Unraid I was using. I tried to access Unraid.net hoping there was a way i could just start fresh. I decided to download a new Unraid trial and installed the latest build 6.11.1 on a new flash drive. I installed 6.11.1 to my new build. This worked and i could access the new Unraid GUi, which proves my thought was correct the new intel nic on the mobo was too new for the older version of Unraid from probably two years ago. I decided i would like to just start fresh this will give me a recap since i haven't used Unraid for a couple years. If possible i would like help with two things. 1. I cannot remember my password for Unraid.net I do not see an option to reset password. 2. I paid $89 for the 12 HDD Unraid OS. Since I couldn't access my old OS and decided to download the trial and start fresh, I was hoping I could transfer my registration key to the trial. How do I get my registration key since I cannot access Unraid.net nor my old Un raid OS? Thanks for all help in advance. Scott
