Hi I have been encoutnering a repeated error when trying to format my new array:

Unmountable: Missing encryption key

Hardware I'm using is a CWWK CW-X86-P6.

The issue SEEMS to be with 2 drives out of 4, I have tried swapping them but the same 2 drives seem to go "missing" when I stop the array.

The same 2 drives show the "missing encryption key" error when formatting the array.

I restart the system, the drives are back, I setup the encrypted array and same issue.

I've done the New Config a number of times to reset the array, and setup an new disk array, same issues.

I can't see anything negatively drive related in the syslog.

I'm running a preclear on all 4 of the nvme drives now to see if that shows up anything.

Please any help would be great?

Try adding the kernel option mentioned to syslinux cfg.
