October 13, 201312 yr Added an new 2tb drive to my 2x2tb array. When I installed it and did the parity check, it needed formatting, so did that. took all night. Now I see the drive in the array, and has a green ball, but is not being written to. The disk 2 (new) used space stays @ 2tb, while disk 1 keeps filling
October 13, 201312 yr Read the Wiki on allocation method. You almost certainly have either "high water" or "fill-up" set ... so the system's not going to use the new disk until your current drive hits the point where it's time to switch.
October 13, 201312 yr You also said "can't write to it" => that should NOT be the case. If you write to Disk2 (NOT to a share), it should absolutely write to that drive. Is that not the case?
