swapping out my flash drive


Recommended Posts

Hi - I have a really old 512GB flash drive.  I am attempting to swap it out with a 4GB sandisk flash drive using the instructions found here:

https://wiki.unraid.net/UnRAID_6/Changing_The_Flash_Device

 

I ran the Unraid USB creator tool on the new flash drive from my Mac (running Big Sur).  It said it finished successfully.

 

Then I shut down my unraid server and replaced the flash drive with the new one.   I booted the server back up and it says that the new flash drive is not a bootable drive.

 

So i tried putting the flash drive back in the mac and running the make_bootable script.   That completed without any errors.   I put it back in the unraid server and tried to boot it up and again it said the drive is not bootable.

 

 Any ideas on why the flash drive is still not bootable and how to make it work?
