Experience shows that USB drives are problematical when used in an array as they have a tendency to temporarily disconnect and then reconnect with a different id and that rarely gets handled gracefully.
I have used ZFS with USB drives and have not had any problems with it.

I have a 4 bay Ryzen ITX server running with 2x3TB data drives & 1x3TB Parity drive. I'd like multiple pools so I could have a pool of USB 3.0 drives in a parity protected drive array.

I have to check why it doesn’t work with a non uefi boot
-
The board has the latest bios update on it. If Unraid doesn’t boot in Uefi mode the nvme fails to initialize
-
I found that if booting unraid in Bios mode the board detects the drive but Unraid doesn't. If booting Unraid in Uefi mode everything works fine & it detects everything
-
I figured it out. I booted Unraid in UEFI mode and the NVME was detected. If I boot in BIOS mode the drive is detected but not available to be used for cache.

I have an Asrock B450M Pro4 motherboard with a Ryzen 5 2600 cpu in it. The board sees the NVME on boot, but the NVME drives is not detected in Unraid. I'm currently running Unraid 6.9.0-rc2. I also tried 6.8.3 & it also didn't detect the drive. Any help is appreciated

The chassis I’m using is a 6 bay hotswap & 2 5.25 drivebay enclosure. It’s going to be a 6 core 12 thread AMD Ryzen cpu. The second server is going to be a 12 drive chassis. I haven’t found a 12 bay chassis with a 5.25 drive bay

@chipmaster , If you are within one drive of being over the max for a Basic license, allow me to suggest going for the Plus license. If you are like most of us, you will be buying it soon in any case. 😏 So save the $9.00US upgrading fee.
I'll be building a second server with 11 data drives,1 parity,no cache drive. This server would be primarily storage & running plex. So a plus license makes sense to get. The first one I'm building is more for ripping & encoding blurays & also running docker containers.

I'm just trying to figure out if I should go 5 Data,1 parity,1 cache or 5 data,1 parity,no cache or 4 data,1 parity,1 cache. I see a lot of reports saying a cache drive is a good idea & some saying not necessary. The chassis I'm using is the Norco RPC-2106. It has 6 hotswap bays & 2 5.25 bays. Just trying to figure out if I want more storage or adding a cache drive.

According to this post optical drives do count against your attached devices storage. I don't see how an optical drive can be considered a storage device
-
I also just found out that if using an optical drive it counts as storage. So I have to get a 12 drive license for my setup.
-
Does that mean I can go with the basic license since cache drives don't factor into the storage array?
-
According to the pro license you can have 28 data,2 parity,24 cache drives. That would be a total of 54 drives on an unlimited license which could only handle 30 drives. So are the 24 cache drives not considered part of the storage array?
-
I'm looking to build a server with 5 storage drives, 1 parity drive, 1 cache drive. Do I get the 6 drive license or 12 drive? I don't want to buy the wrong registration license for my server.
