I have another question before I try to mount my drives. Is it possible to run something that can use my raid HDDs in a VM with minimal resources (like one core, 4 GB RAM) in Unraid and use them there? They are storage backups anyway; I don't need them to interact with the containers or other stuff I might install. And can I use Unraid without a drive array and only pools? So I store data, VM, and containers in the pool.

Does assigning the drives to the pool reformat them? I need the data in the ZFS pool. I don't have much on the EXT 4, but I would prefer this not to be a one-way journey since I am still undecided and trialling the software. I backed up everything on all my drives, but I don't want to change any file system in case I decide to stick with OMV.

I am using the trial 7.2.2 and I am trying to migrate from OMV to Unraid. My HDDs configure in OMV was 4 drives in ZFSZ1, 1 SSD in EXT4, and 2 HDDs in mdadm raid mirror. I installed the unassign plugin on Unraid, but I still could not mount the EXT4 drives. And I am not sure how to mount my ZFS pool without losing data. I understand that Unraid doesn't support mdadm, but can I run a VM that can use the raid and pass the drive to the VM? If so how do I achieve that?
