SimonAG Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I can see it shows format will create a file system in all unmountable disks and then shows the new cache drive on the left side as the only disk. When I click are you sure box it warns me it is going to wipe the disk etc. I just want to be sure this is not going to touch the main array, I don't think it will but I don't think it is clear enough for me to just do it without posting this for confirmation. Its only going to format the cache right and is there any other way I can format the disk, like with the array unmounted and just that disk selected? Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted March 24, 2023 Solution Share Posted March 24, 2023 If it's a pool it will only format the pool, next to the format button there will be a list of the devices that will be formatted. Quote Link to comment
SimonAG Posted March 24, 2023 Author Share Posted March 24, 2023 You can understand my hesitancy though? the button is in the same list as the start stop array etc. Quote Link to comment
