Did you also move the RAID card over or did the new server have a RAID onboard and you then created a new JBOD arrays with it.

 

RAID cards don't report the true serial numbers of the drives and basically append their own identifier to it. which is resulting in the system not identifying the drives as they were before.

 

You should do a Tools - New Config.  Then reassign all the drives into their appropriate places (make note of which is parity and which is data).  You can also check off parity is already valid, but you should run a parity check regardless.

But 'new config' will erase the data on them?  No, I didnt move the card.  The old one didnt have raid.  

No it does not.    The New Config is documented here in the online documentation accessible via the ‘Manual’ link at the bottom of the GUI or the DOCS link at the top of each forum page.
