Can't format and mount ssd


Recommended Posts

I'm using the latest version of unraid 6.9.2. I seperated my ssd in my cache pool and placed one in unassigned devices.  There is no data on the ssd. I precleaared the drive , and it was sucessful.  I'm attempting to format the drive but unraid will not let me. Since i can't format the drive, i can't mount it.  Any sugestions on how tp fix this problem? Thanks.

No need to preclear SSDs.  It's just unnecessary wear and tear for an SSD.  If you are trying to mount the drive as an unassigned device, you must have the Unassigned Devices Plus plugin installed to enable destructive mode which allows you to format the SSD.  This is documented in the Unassigned Devices support thread.
