dirtymike0330 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) Hello all! I have a 12TB drive that I want to use as my parity drive. It says there is 11.9 out of 12tb free, but I don't see anything in the file directory... when I tried to remove the drive, I got a red x that said "DEVICE IS DISABLED, CONTENTS EMULATED" so I panicked and re-assigned the drive. I have seen some articles but not sure that any really apply to me. I'm not sure why any data would be on the drive, I only added it to the data array temporarily because I couldn't add it to parity first. Any help would be appreciated! Edit: Not pictured, but I currently do not have a parity drive Edited September 30, 2021 by dirtymike0330 Added info Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 First you need to shrink the array, then you can assign it as parity. 1 Quote Link to comment
