Candle02 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Alright so I ran into a wall with this one. I had my UnRaid setup on a dell R710 with a Perc 6i. It was running great except I was running out of storage. My solution was to change my Perc 6i to an H700 to accomodate larger drives. I made the swap physically, on boot my bios or raid setup utility sees the drives without issue. I boot into UnRaid and they are nowhere to be found. I dont want to set them up as new drives with a raid 0 and then mount them because they are all full of data (Around 5TB total). My question is can I manually mount these into Unraid or run a disk fix utility to bring them in without data loss? If I must I can put the 6i back in and move the data off, go back to the h700 and set it up as a new array with raid 0 in the bios and then move the data back I was just looking for a better soluion than that. Any info is appreciated! Cheers! Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 That's of of the problems using RAID controllers, you'd need to create a raid0 volume for each disk with the megaraid BIOS/utility, but note that doing that would likely re-initialize the disks and delete all data there. Quote Link to comment
Solution Candle02 Posted June 19, 2023 Author Solution Share Posted June 19, 2023 Update: I ended up sending back the H700 opting for an H310 in IT mode pre flashed. To my knowledge this will have the capability of up to 8 drives with no max drive size. Is this a correct statement? Quote Link to comment
