(SOLVED) How do I get get Unraid to recognize all my hard drives for use?

Hello,

I just started yesterday with Unraid and I cant get it to show all the dives for use. I can see them under SCSI devices.

 

I'm using a Intel Motherboard S2600CP2 with a IBM M1015 9220-8i and a Lenovo 16-Port 6Gbps SAS-2 SATA Expansion Adapter.

It is a requirement of Unraid that each disk is passed through with a unique serial number - is this the case with your hardware?   If you posted your system’s diagnostics zip file(obtained via Tools -> Diagnostics) it would give us enough to determine if this is your problem or whether something else is going on.

ok I see my issue some of them are in "520-byte physical blocks" I need to go and change the sector size of them. If I read the logs right going to try that first, If I'm wrong let me know.

If that is what is being reported in the log, then yes you do need to convert them to 512 byte sectors before Unraid can use them.

Thanks itimpi. That fixed the issue I don't know how I missed those other drives still being 520 byte sectors when I did the others.
