December 18, 20214 yr Doing a parity swap, copy operation completed after 36 hours (16 TB), tried to add a new drive in an empty slot, didn't realize you can't do that before this parity swap is completed so I just removed it, never started the array. Now it's making me complete the entire copy operation all over again! Is this really how this is supposed to work? Just simply selecting a different drive in a different slot basically reset the entire process that already completed. Is this a bug, or working as intended?

Yep, any changes or reboot/restart the array during the procedure and you'll need to start over from the beginning, after the copy is done the only button you can press is to start the rebuild.
