  1. I tried searching and I couldn't find an answer.

     

    What I am looking to do is the following....and if it cannot be done, thats fine.

     

    Since UNRAID does an awesome job at testing and clearing drives I am looking for a way to test drives before adding it to my array or using them for something else.

     

    I was using a USB adapter to connect the disk to my server.  I know this works and I can see the drive when my system reboots.

     

    So my questions:

     

    1.  Use there a way to have USB devices recognized without rebooting.  Also, a clean way to disconnect when done.

    2.  Once I can see the drive, is there a way to test/clear the drive without adding it to the array.  I added a disk to the array only to find it was bad and then I had to remove it, commit the new config and then run a parity check on a 8 TB drive (20+ hours)

     

    I am running 6.4.1

     

    Thanks, any advice would be great.
