cachepool 1 drive doesn't do anything

[brainbudt]

hey guys!

I have a question. I have a cachepool with 4 SSD in it. They are in raid 5. The weird thing is that just 3 of the 4 drive's are being written to.
You can see in picture 1 that drive 4 has just 69(nice) reads to it and 0 writes.

Is this because it is using the 4e drive as the "parity" one?

Cache4 is currently not part of the pool despite what the GUI shows, try this: stop array, unassign cache4, start array, stop array, re-assign cache4, start array.

Thanks that seems to fix it! Was this just a weird hiccup by the GUI or something else?

Sometimes Unraid fails to add a device to a pool, but can't see why in this case because it's was before current diags.
