Hi there,

 

I found your post because I was looking for the same answer.

 

In case anyone else stumbles across this post (or if OP hasn't found the answer). For me, after changing the default filesystem from xfs to xfs-encrypted, I then had to:

 

  1. Open each drive (Main -> Click Disk Name -> Change file system to encrypted).
  2. Stop the array (Main -> Array Operation -> Stop
  3. On the same screen, there was a new prompt stating that I needed to set an encryption key, so I did.
  4. Then when starting the array, each of the drives were listed as unmountable. I ticked the box to format them and away it went. NOTE - in my case, I hadn't yet written any data to the array. If you've already got data on your array, THIS VIDEO from Spaceinvader One looks like the best option.

Hopefully that's helpful to someone out there.
