Konfitüre Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Hi, I have a hard drive that is a bit older and already has pending-sectors. To avoid problems, I would like to exclude it from parity and only use it for unimportant things like caching data for transfering something or so. How do I do this? Quote Link to comment

The only way to do this would be to not have it in the array. Parity always covers all array drives. If you are going to use it then you are probably best using it as a drive managed by the Unassigned Devices plugin. Quote Link to comment

It is in the server and I don't want to remove it from the case Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Removing disks from the array is covered here in the online documentation accessible via the 'Manual' link at the bottom of the Unraid GUI. 1 Quote Link to comment
