June 27, 20224 yr Hi! I've come back to building my server after several months of hiatus and am finally trying to get this thing booted up and ready for action. However, I am having troubles trying to assign a new hard drive to Disk 1 in my array. For some reason, Disk 1 keeps remembering an old USB that I used when setting up the server (I used this USB to troubleshoot early on). As you can see in this image here, Disk 1 refuses to accept any new drive. It doesn't even let me start my array if I assign a drive to it. I've googled for an hour now and found nothing relevant to my particular scenario. What's strange is that when I open Disk 1 it shows me that my partition size is 3.7GB -- see image here. It's as though Disk 1 refuses to forget that the old USB drive is mounted to it. Is there any way I can get unRAID to forcefully forget or reset Disk 1? Any help would be appreciated

June 28, 20224 yr Solution According to diagnostics, you don't have any assigned disks. You can set a New Config with any disk assigned however you want and rebuild parity. Be sure you don't assign any disk with data on it to any parity slot. https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Tools#New_Config
