November 2, 2025Nov 2 I am trying to to format my MVME drive as a cache drive and when I try to format it, it will just sit in the "formatting" state forever.I have tried rebooting, reformatting using blkdiscard -f /dev/nvme0n1 & I have tried remounting using fdisk -l /dev/nvme0n1 but it is still not working for me.I have attached my diagnostics because I have no idea what to do from here.Any help would be appreciated. urd-diagnostics-20251102-1216.zip
November 2, 2025Nov 2 Author I ended up figuring out the issue. I had my cache drive assigned to slot 2 when it should have been assigned to slot 1. I updated this and now it formats fine.
November 3, 2025Nov 3 Community Expert Do you mean you had a pool with two slots and only a single device assigned to slot 2?
