Best way to start over?

[sihorrocks]

Fairly new user, built my first array, had some problems, see previous posts. The advice from the mods here was to start over, in addition, II have also bought a larger cache drive to replace my current and also want to remove a HDD with errors and put a replacement in. So it's near enough a new build.

 

I've backed up the data I want to keep to a windows machine, and want to start again with the new cache drive and replacement HDDs from what is currently in the array. Dont need to keep anything at all. Broken array is still active.

 

What's the best way to start over? Can I just make a new Boot USB key and start from scratch, or do I need to do something within the existing broken array to clear the drives? 

 

I hadn't bought my reg key yet, but will on the new array, so no need to transfer.

You can, you can all erase all the drives using the GUI, after assigning them and before starting the array.

I replaced my misfunctioning chance drive with a bigger SSD to prevent it filling up again and going RW, and was able to rebuild the array and maintain all my data. However, putting the apps back on and setting them up with the trash guide is proving a challenge, getting duplicate mount errors when trying to point my new installed apps to the share - is it possible wipe all appdata and install them fresh?

docker: Error response from daemon: Duplicate mount point: /data.
See 'docker run --help'.

 

After this error it removes the app from the docker and has to be reinstalled
