crusemm Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) I recently transferred my unraid to a new case and motherboard. In the process I added a new 14 TB disk, the same size as my parity drive. I transferred everything to the new case, booted up unraid with the original 5 disk array (4 data plus 1 parity) with the new disk as an unassigned device. After I had the original set up working, I ran preclear on the new disk. Then, following instructions Adding Disks I stopped the array, added the disk to the array, and started the array again. The disk showed as unmountable with the error "Unmountable: Unsupported partition layout" with no option to format. I figured something went wrong with the preclear, so i stopped the array, removed the disk (which showed a red x next to it and said "missing") started the array and ran preclear again. I then followed the instructions again, stopping the array adding the disk and starting again. This time the array started a parity check, as if I had replaced a damaged disk. I decided to let the process run and finish the parity check. Now I am here, back to an installed disk that is unmountable, with no option to format. How do I proceed from here? The disk added was WDC_WD140EDFZ-11A0VA0_QBKUU99T-20210325-1711 disk5 (sdh) syslog 03-25-2021.txt plexunraid-diagnostics-20210325-1711.zip Edited March 25, 2021 by crusemm Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 You should have a format option on the bottom of the main page next to start/stop buttons, if you don't please post a GUI screenshot. Quote Link to comment
crusemm Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 I am so dumb, I looked and looked for it and couldn't find it. And 5 seconds after posting those screen shots, there it is, under the main tab. Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment
