June 1, 20251 yr I am using Unraid version 7.1.2After a system crash I had to rebuild my unraid environment and in doing so I have to create a new config.when I when back to assign all my drives back I was able to do the main RAID hard disks with no issues, but when I try to assign the cache disk, I am not able to locate it.as it is not listed in the main device drivers.all I can see all the Disks under devices,I see the option for Pool Devicesthen I see the Boot devicesunassigned disks / remote shares and historical unassigned devicesbut no Cache Drivecan someone please tell me where to find it.
June 4, 20251 yr Author hi jorgeB, I think you missed my point, all my hard drive's all are seen within the Unraid dashboard, but when I try and assign the cache drive, there is no option to assign the HD as it is not listed.
June 5, 20251 yr Author thanks I saw it posted in there, but I just through that it was for a pool of hard drivers and not the a cache drive.

Whether a pool is used for caching purposes is controlled at the individual User Share level and it can be using any pool name.
