TEKI Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I am migrating to Unraid and my current setup is that, one 2T parity drive (A) and two 1T normal drive (B and C). there are one 2T drive (D) storing my backup data and it almost full and I cannot move all backup data to Unraid. i want to release parity drive (A) and add it a normal drive, copy drive (C) data to drive (A), then release drive (C). then assign drive (D) as parity drive. I understand it temporily loss parity protection, but I don't want to buy a new drive now and want to take the risk. However, Unraid seems not allow me to do so, by simply assign the parity drive (A) to normal drive. what is the correct procedure? Quote Link to comment

Unassign parity, start array, stop array, assign old parity as data disk, start array. Quote Link to comment
