Cant mount NVME drive, mount button greyed out - Gigabyte NVME PCI4 drive

[admintite]

Hello,

just got done building my second Unraid server. I wanted a fast drive to place my VM vdisk in but I am struggling to get the drive to mount. I've searched, to the best of my ability, all topics related to this but have not found success. I do have the Unassigned Drives plugins and have tried to preclear the drive (destructive mode enabled), after the preclear i get the "Format" button but when i click it, it does nothing... If i create a partition using fdisk, the mount button is greyed out.

 

Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Assign it as an Unraid pool device and after array start click format, if it still doesn't please post the diagnostics after that attempt.

Added to a new pool and formatted it, I then removed it from the pool and it became a unassigned device. After that I was able to click the mount button and it sucessfully mounted.

I never would have thought of trying this. Many thanks.

Could be a UD issue, but in that case you'd need to report it in the existing UD plugin support thread.
