Wooderman Posted September 15, 2024 Posted September 15, 2024 I'm trying to add an array of 3 8TB drives to a new installation. When I run lsblk in the terminal, they all show up as follows: loop0 7:0 0 65.8M 1 loop /lib loop1 7:1 0 373.6M 1 loop /usr sda 8:0 1 57.8G 0 disk └─sda1 8:1 1 57.8G 0 part /boot sdb 8:16 0 7.3T 0 disk ├─sdb1 8:17 0 16M 0 part └─sdb2 8:18 0 7.3T 0 part sdc 8:32 0 7.3T 0 disk ├─sdc1 8:33 0 16M 0 part └─sdc2 8:34 0 7.3T 0 part sde 8:64 0 7.3T 0 disk ├─sde1 8:65 0 16M 0 part └─sde2 8:66 0 7.3T 0 part sdf 8:80 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─sdf1 8:81 0 16M 0 part └─sdf2 8:82 0 931.5G 0 part nvme1n1 259:0 0 476.9G 0 disk └─nvme1n1p1 259:1 0 476.9G 0 part nvme0n1 259:2 0 476.9G 0 disk └─nvme0n1p1 259:3 0 476.9G 0 part But when I go into the array setup GUI, it only shows sdf, sde and the nvme drives as available to mount. Dev 4 ST8000NM_000A-2KE101_000000123ACD-0:0 - 8 TB (sde) Dev 3 SPCC_Sol_id_State_Dis_000000123AE8-0:0 - 1 TB (sdf) Dev 2 HS-SSD-E1000_512G_30124598385 - 512 GB (nvme1n1) Dev 1 SAMSUNG_MZVL4512HBLU-00BH1_S6B5NF2W935113 - 512 GB (nvme0n1) I've tried mounting in the terminal line based on the UUID of the disks, but still won't populate in the GUI so I can start an array. Any thoughts on how I can get these mounted? These were used on a previous TrueNAS install and passed all SMART tests on there before setting up this build. I don't have any data I need to keep, so formatting them as needed is fine. Thanks! Quote
JonathanM Posted September 15, 2024 Posted September 15, 2024 Remove all the partitions and see if that helps. Quote
Wooderman Posted September 15, 2024 Author Posted September 15, 2024 Hey Jonathan I deleted the partitions, and it's still only showing the same drives available. On a side note, I have these in an external enclosure to a mini-SAS cable, so I plugged it into my proxmox server as well, and all drives showed up there no problem, so I don't believe it to be a device issue. Using this on a QNAP TL-D400S, not sure if that makes a difference here. Quote
itimpi Posted September 15, 2024 Posted September 15, 2024 There could be a problem if the enclosure is not passing through unique serial numbers for each drive. You are likely to get better informed feedback if you attach your system’s diagnostics zip file to your next post in this thread. It is always a good idea when asking questions to supply your diagnostics so we can see details of your system, how you have things configured, and the current syslog. Quote
